Company Recognized For Innovation And Growth
Angel MedFlight Worldwide Air Ambulance has received two
Arizona Corporate Excellence (ACE) awards, the company announced
Tuesday. They have been named the third fastest growing,
privately-held company in Arizona, and presented with the ACE
Innovation Award.
Kelly LoCascio, Angel MedFlight CEO, accepted the honors on
behalf of the Scottsdale-based air ambulance company during the
16th annual ACE ceremony in Phoenix. “Innovation is the
hallmark of our company," said LoCascio. "We continually strive to
advance the air medical transportation industry through
sophisticated training and advanced technology. Angel
MedFlight’s success and growth can be attributed to our
commitment to improvement. We are never satisfied with status quo;
we are consistently raising our standards of patient care and
service.”
Since the inception of Angel MedFlight in 2007, company
president and founder Jeremy Freer has incorporated many
innovations, some of which include hiring registered nurses as
flight coordinators, establishing a legal department to assist
patients with their insurance claims, providing elite training for
medical personnel, and upgrading aircraft with advanced safety
avionics and WiFi capability. “Receiving the ACE Innovation
Award is especially meaningful to me because it highlights many of
the reasons I started Angel MedFlight,” stated Freer.
“When I was working as a flight paramedic during college I
was frustrated with the inefficiency of the air medical transport
process and I saw many opportunities for improvement. I designed
the Angel MedFlight business model to better serve our patients,
their families and case managers. Our patients’ care and
safety is always our top priority.”
In addition to the Top 50 and 25 fastest-growing-company awards,
three special awards are given each year including the Innovation
Award.
