Market Overview:
The global air medical services market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for air medical services due to accidents and emergencies, rising number of hospitals and insurance companies, and growing awareness about air medical services. Based on type, the global air medical services market is segmented into medical evacuation and casualty evacuation. Medical evacuation dominates the market with a share of more than 80%. This can be attributed to the increasing demand for emergency transportation of patients owing to accidents or health emergencies. By application, hospitals dominate the market with a share of more than 60%. This can be attributed to increased spending by hospitals on emergency transportation owing to increase in number of patients requiring critical care transportations.
Product Definition:
Air medical services are a critical component of the U.S. healthcare system, providing rapid transport to definitive care for patients with time-sensitive or serious illnesses or injuries. The use of helicopters and airplanes allows Air Medical Services (AMS) to provide faster transportation than traditional ground ambulance services, often reducing the time it takes to reach a hospital from rural or remote areas by 50 percent or more.
Medical Evacuation:
Medical evacuation is the process of transporting a patient to a medical facility by an ambulance or other medical vehicle. It is used when the patient needs immediate attention from healthcare professionals and/or requires emergency treatment at a remote location. Medical evacuation can be performed in two ways, air-medical transportation or ground-based transportation.
Casualty Evacuation:
Casualty evacuation is a process of moving patients from the accident site to medical facilities. It includes patient transfer using various devices like wheelchairs, stretchers or litters and other mobility aids. Casualty evacuation is an integral part of any emergency response plan and it's used in most types of natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, hurricanes and so on.
Application Insights:
The air medical services market is segmented by application into Embassies and Governments, hospitals, casualty evacuations, and others. The other applications include corporate aviation or private aircraft on charter basis for patient transport. Air ambulance services are provided to patients in need of urgent medical care who cannot be transported by road due to their condition or injury.
Air ambulance service providers have a dedicated team of highly skilled professionals with years of experience in providing emergency medical services at high altitude flying conditions which enables them to reach the destination quickly without compromising with safety and quality standards. These teams also assist government authorities during emergencies such as natural disasters or civil unrest situations where ground transportation is disrupted or impassable due to accidents etc., thereby rendering air ambulances essential for life-saving missions at the time of emergencies as well as during non-emergencies when there are cases where it would be difficult for ground vehicles owing to inaccessible locations etc.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global air medical services market in 2016 with a revenue share of over 40%. The growth can be attributed to various factors such as favorable government initiatives, high disposable income, and increasing demand for quality healthcare. In addition, the presence of major players in this region is also expected to drive growth. For instance, Air Methods Corporation is one of the largest providers of air medical services throughout North America. It has around 6800 employees and operates around 300 fixed-wing aircraft and 1400 helicopters across 600 bases in more than 20 countries worldwide.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness lucrative growth during the forecast period owing to an increase in demand for air medical transportation due to rising incidence rates of cardiac disorders coupled with growing awareness about advanced technologies used by these service providers (such as Helicopter Emergency Medical Services (HEMS) or trauma centers located at airports). Moreover, economic development coupled with improvement in infrastructure will boost regional market expansion over the forecast period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for emergency medical services: The increasing demand for emergency medical services is one of the key growth drivers for the air medical services market. This is because air ambulance offers faster and more efficient transportation of patients to the required destination, which helps in saving their lives.
- Technological advancements: The technological advancements in the field of aviation and healthcare are also propelling the growth of this market. For instance, introduction of new aircraft models with advanced features such as night vision goggles (NVGs), autopilot systems, and global positioning system (GPS) has helped in improving patient safety during transportation. In addition, development of new technologies such as telemedicine is aiding in providing better healthcare facilities to patients located remotely from hospitals or trauma centers.
- Growing awareness about air ambulance services: There has been a growing awareness about air ambulance services among people due to increased media coverage on accidents and emergencies that require urgent transportation by an aircraft equipped with necessary medical facilities onboard. This is helping in boosting the adoption rate of these services worldwide.
