Questions about air ambulance membership in McKinney
Does my PHI Cares membership cover a Medical City Healthcare flight?
Yes. Medical City Healthcare is a PHI Air Medical cooperative partner. A medically necessary flight by PHI Air Medical or a cooperative partner carries $0 out-of-pocket responsibility for members, under the membership Terms and Conditions.
Who decides if a helicopter is sent?
In a medical emergency, always call 911. In most cases, the ground EMS crew first on the scene decides whether a helicopter is needed and requests one. For a transfer between hospitals, the patient's doctor requests the flight, and members can ask for PHI Air Medical when possible.
Does my membership work outside Collin County?
