emergency evacuation (coverage)


Explanation:
This is the closest term I could find in my research.

"Emergency Evacuation Coverage will pay for emergency evacuation expenses such as airlifts and medically equipped flights back home, and oftentimes will transport you to the hospital of your choice for care.

Evacuation expenses can be devastating.

An ambulance to the hospital, an airlift to a more adequate hospital, getting you back home on board a medically-staffed flight afterwards…evacuation expenses can easily cost $50,000."

disagree  Richard Purdom: 'não se encontre em condições de retornar como passageiro regular' is not necessarily an emergency or an evacuation

  -> You missed the point. Read the whole context. A personal accident may result in evacuation. "Apart from emergency hospitalisation, these policies cover personal accidents, loss of documents and luggage, cost of evacuation..." - Business Today, India

Reference: Difference between Medical Evacuation and Repatriation

Reference information:
The major difference between an emergency medical evacuation and medical repatriation services is that while the medevac services are carried out in cases of a medical emergency when treatment is not readily available at the nearest facility, the medical repatriation services offer patients the necessary medical evacuation services alongside the freedom to get treated in their home country in a familiar environment. Another thing to keep in mind is that both, the medevac and medical repatriation services, involve the necessary evacuation of the injured or ill individual to a medical facility or their primary residence on a medically equipped flight.

Typically, insurance companies offer coverage plans for emergency medical services which cover the medical care a patient required during transportation including life support or oxygen while some might include bedside to bedside transportation services within a specific number of miles by a certain kind of aircraft. Most insurance companies have stringent requirements regarding the conditions necessary to qualify for medical repatriation services cost reimbursement and will only cover the air ambulance cost if they are subject to the definitions of the situations deemed “medically necessary”.
