Medassis

Medassis was founded in 2011. The company provides medical flight services from Israel to destinations worldwide. Its administrative and operational hub sits at Ben Gurion Airport. This location allows the company to respond quickly to both domestic and international requests.

The company operates air ambulance flights using private aircraft equipped with medical equipment. These planes transport patients who need urgent or specialized evacuation. The company also provides medical escorts on commercial flights. This option suits patients whose condition allows travel on regular airlines. In both cases, medical staff stay with the patient from the starting point to the final hospital.

Medassis employs case managers, travel agents, and medical professionals. The medical team includes specialized doctors, paramedics, and critical care nurses. Each team member has training and accreditation in aviation medicine. A flight doctor reviews every case to choose the right staff for the flight. The company owns and stores medical equipment at Ben Gurion Airport. This setup allows quick response when a call comes in.

The company handles thousands of medical cases and repatriation flights each year. It works with major Israeli health maintenance organizations and insurance firms. Known partners include Clalit, Leumit, Maccabi, Meuhedet, Clal Insurance, Phoenix, Passport Card, DavidShield, and Europ Assistance. These relationships help patients access coverage and care across borders. Case managers are on duty at all hours to track patient status and manage logistics.

Medassis offers services beyond air transport. It provides remote medical consultation by phone or video in Hebrew and other languages. The company arranges hospital care abroad and helps with medical payments in foreign countries. It supplies doctor house calls anywhere in Israel. It also assists tourists in Israel who need basic or advanced medical care. Repatriation of deceased persons is available as well.

The company holds ISO 9001 certification for quality management and ISO 27000 certification for information security. Both were confirmed by the Israeli Standards Institute. After each mission, the crew carries out a thorough debriefing modeled on military practice. This process supports continuous improvement and operational safety. The company states that patient care, competitive pricing, and strict quality control guide its daily work.
