Billings Clinic–Logan Health to integrate air ambulance services

Billings Clinic-Logan Health is considering outsourcing aviation operations for A.L.E.R.T. as it integrates the two medical systems’ air ambulance services.

Co-Chief Executive Officer Kevin Abel said the health care system is in the process of coordinating A.L.E.R.T. and Billings Clinic’s MedFlight with a goal of creating an “inter-connected Montana-Wyoming rural trauma and emergency transport program.” The services are expected to retain the A.L.E.R.T. and MedFlight branding.

One step they’ve taken so far is posting an executive director position that will oversee the programs, Abel said.
