If you’re a senior in Oklahoma, chances are you’re aware of the gaps Medicare leaves when covering air and ground transportation during medical emergencies. For Agent Elijah Patterson, this reality hits close to home. He has been on a mission through educational seminars across the state to educate seniors about the importance of supplemental coverage, specifically through MASA (Medical Air Services Association) memberships.
This blog post will explain why air and ground transport coverage is crucial for Oklahoma seniors and how MASA memberships can fill the gap Medicare leaves.
Medicare provides excellent health insurance for those 65 and older, but its coverage for emergency transport is limited. Here’s why this is a concern for seniors:
In particular, seniors in rural parts of Oklahoma are at a disadvantage. Emergency air transport is often the only option for getting the critical care needed, and without proper coverage, this could be financially devastating.
This is where Agent Elijah Patterson and his MASA memberships come into play. MASA provides comprehensive coverage for emergency air and ground transportation—without the limits that Medicare places on beneficiaries.
Here’s why MASA memberships are a game changer for seniors:
Elijah Patterson has been hosting educational seminars across Oklahoma to raise awareness of these issues and provide seniors with the tools they need to protect themselves. Here’s what you can expect when attending one of his seminars:
These seminars aim to educate seniors so they can make informed decisions about their healthcare coverage, particularly in times of emergency.
Oklahoma’s vast rural areas make it more challenging for seniors to access timely medical care, especially in emergencies where air transport is necessary. A simple medical emergency could become a financial disaster without adequate coverage.
MASA membership ensures that you’re protected, regardless of where you live or travel within the U.S. With no out-of-pocket costs and nationwide coverage, MASA takes the financial burden of emergency medical transportation off your shoulders.
Attending one of Elijah Patterson’s educational seminars could be one of the most important decisions you make as an Oklahoma senior. By understanding the gaps in Medicare’s coverage and learning how MASA can protect you in an emergency, you’re securing peace of mind and your financial future.
If you’re an Oklahoma senior or know someone who is, don’t wait for an emergency to realize that you’re not fully covered. Take action today by learning about MASA memberships and protecting your health and finances.
