The Hawaiʻi State Department of Health has awarded contracts to a new pilot program that could deliver rural medical patients to their appointments on other islands.

The Hawaii Department of Health has initiated a Rural Medical Air Transport Program to enhance emergency medical services in rural areas of the state. This program, supported by a $2 million grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, aims to provide faster and more efficient medical transport for residents in remote locations. The initiative will involve collaboration with local healthcare providers and emergency services to ensure that patients in need can be quickly airlifted to facilities capable of providing necessary care. This effort is part of a broader strategy to improve healthcare access and outcomes in underserved regions of Hawaii.
