Ambulance Transportation
Ambulances can be a life saver when traveling in areas where it’s difficult to find emergency services. They may also come in handy during natural disasters, when local emergency services may be unable to reach a facility due to damage or the weight of material. An ambulance is a car that can take sick or injured persons who need immediate medical attention and transport them to a hospital. Patients can be moved between hospitals using ambulances as well.

What is the starting investment for a medical transportation company?
For approximately $12,000, you can launch a medical transportation company. Costs include a website, licenses and certificates, and a wheelchair-accessible van.
What permits do I require to launch a medical transportation company?
The certification and licensing standards for medical transportation businesses and drivers vary by state. You should at the very least be trained in CPR and basic aid. For laws, check with your state. Other business licenses and permits can be required at the state and local levels as well. For requirements, see your local governments or go to MyCorporation’s Business License Compliance website.
