 SkyMed International introduces GLOBAL Emergency Travel Services

SkyMed International, Inc., a Scottsdale, AZ based emergency air-transport membership service provider, has announced the introduction of a new subsidiary product called GLOBAL Emergency Travel Services.

Global Emergency Travel Services (GLOBAL ETS) has been designed as a premier travel service membership program for United States, Canadian and United Kingdom residents. GLOBAL ETS provides a myriad of various services and benefits to its members such as emergency evacuation, medically necessary repatriation and more.

GLOBAL ETS will be marketed through affinity partnerships in the travel industry, including time-share distributors, large-membership travel organizations, car-rental agencies, travel agents and more.

Mr. Will Klein, President and CEO of SkyMed International states, "GLOBAL ETS will bring to the traveler a much-needed service and an affordable price. When they are traveling more than 100 mile from home, wherever they may be in the world, GLOBAL ETS will be there to provide needed assistance in case of a medical emergency. We are pleased to add this service to our already renowned list of SkyMed products and services."

SkyMed has provided its TAKES YOU HOME services to travelers who are residents of the United States and Canada since 1989. When a SkyMed member is more than 100 miles from home and suffers a critical illness or accident, SkyMed coordinates and pays for all related costs to move their member and their families back to their home area hospitals. This may involve air-ambulance jet travel as well as vehicle transport, dependent children return and more.
