The purpose of 7 AAC 26.310 - 7 AAC 26.400 is to promote the health and safety of the people of Alaska by establishing uniform minimum standards for certification of air medevac services, critical care air ambulance services, and specialty aero-medical transport teams. It is not the intent of 7 AAC 26.310 - 7 AAC 26.400 to prohibit transportation of emergency medical patients via any private aircraft, air taxi service, commercial airline, or government aircraft when it is in the best interests of the patient and no certified service is available within a reasonable period of time as determined by the medical attendant with the patient. Rather, the intent is to prescribe minimum standards for air medevac services, air ambulance services, or specialty aero-medical transport teams that provide, offer, or advertise to provide emergency medical care that includes advanced life support services, and transportation, to sick or injured patients as a routine service, or to prescribe standards for basic life support services that choose to become certified.
