WHITE PAPER

Air Medical Services Cost Study Report

The Association of Air Medical Services (AAMS) commissioned Xcenda, part of AmerisourceBergen, to conduct independent research on the costs associated with providing emergent air medical transports.

The commissioned study is in response to an evident need for reputable, independent research to quantify the costs associated with providing emergent air medical transports.  Further, the study examines the appropriateness of the 2002 Medicare rate-setting methodology for air medical services and current payment adequacy.  The resulting report provides independent substantiation of actual costs to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and Members of Congress.
