What is Medical Repatriation?

Medical repatriation refers to the safe transfer of a patient from one country to another or from a distant location back to their home or a healthcare facility. This service is essential for individuals who have fallen ill or sustained an injury while abroad and require medical assistance to return home. It is also used for patients who need specialized treatment in another location.

AMG provides comprehensive repatriation services, including:
✅ Ground ambulance repatriation for short- and long-distance transfers
✅ Commercial airline medical escort services for stable patients requiring professional care during a flight
✅ Hospital-to-hospital transfers ensuring continuity of care
✅ Bed-to-bed service where our team coordinates the entire journey, including pre-hospital care, travel arrangements, and post-transport handovers

When is Medical Repatriation Needed?

Medical repatriation is required when a patient cannot travel home via normal commercial means due to their medical condition. Some common situations include:

  • A UK resident falls ill or is injured while abroad and requires medical assistance to return home
  • A patient receiving treatment in another country needs to be transferred to a UK hospital for further care
  • A holidaymaker or expatriate suffers a medical emergency and needs to be transported to their home country
  • A patient in a foreign hospital requires specialist care that is not available locally
  • A family wants to relocate a chronically ill or elderly relative back home for continued treatment and care

Our team at AMG provides a seamless repatriation experience, ensuring that every medical, logistical, and administrative aspect is taken care of.
