The 200 NM RADIUS is the killer?

Upgrade your current E model!

Of course you would already have the 5 cell fuel system?

Mod. 109-0823-22 Increase Internal Gross Weight to 3000 kg (6614 lbs)

It's mainly gear mods as the aircraft is certified to this weight with External Loads.

Price ~ about a quarter of a buck for the pieces.

1 pilot plus 1 attendant you could probably pick up ~ 2 patients.

Issue is you need an aircraft with an EEW of ~ 1950 kg!
