How this service works
  • CrossCare Global does not certify a patient as fit to fly. Medical fitness is determined by the treating clinician and accepted by the airline through its own medical-clearance process.
  • CrossCare Global does not provide emergency evacuation. Emergency cases should contact local emergency services or an accredited emergency medical transport provider.
  • CrossCare Global coordinates services through independent hospitals, licensed healthcare professionals, care agencies, transport providers and specialist logistics partners. The availability, licensing and legal scope of services vary by country, state and jurisdiction. CrossCare Global is not an emergency service, and medical decisions remain the responsibility of the patient's licensed treating clinicians.
