Conclusion
There are many incentives to become accredited. Financial incentives include: potential savings on aviation insurance; contracts awarded to CAMTS accredited services by the government and big industry, and reimbursement incentives from managed care organizations.
Several states require CAMTS accreditation. Most importantly, the process provides a very comprehensive evaluation of the transport service by experts in the transport profession and provides a framework for improvement to ensure safe and competent patient transport.To contact CAMTS: Phone: 864-287-4177
