Most of these flights will be insurance repatriation. I would imagine the AOC with an air ambulance jet would have it basically kitted out as such and would give a price for the jet and crew and flying side.

I would equally imagine that the medical side would be by specialized medical units who would supply their own price to complete the total price package for the flight?
I can remember flying to the USA where a section of a 747 at the back had been rented to transport a very sick passenger.
There was an elaborate amount of kit and two Doctors and a nurse.
I spoke with one of the Doctors who traveled around the place just doing aviation contracts.
Maybe someone who flies for an air ambulance can give more detail or correct anything I have said which is wrong?
