AirMed International, LLC, based in Birmingham, Alabama, is an FAA-approved fee-for-service air ambulance airline. AirMed holds accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Medical Transport Systems (CAMTS) and the European Aero-medical Institute, and is an accredited service provider with the International Assistance Group (IAG).

The company was founded in 1987 as MEDjet International and was renamed AirMed International in 2003. AirMed offers international service to all countries except for Iraq, North Korea, and Libya.[citation needed]

In 2017, the company acquired the ambulance medical company Air Medical.

The University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Nursing and Airmed entered a partnership in 2018 to give nurses and other healthcare providers the opportunity to participate in simulated trainings that will help prepare them for real-world scenarios.

AirMed is a contracted carrier for the U.S. Department of Defense. AirMed is a member of the Association of Air Medical Services (AAMS), and created an air ambulance industry website, weatherturndown.com, allowing medical transport programs to share current information regarding delays or cancellations due to weather or other hazards.[citation needed]

AirMed sells a pre-paid air ambulance membership for individuals and families known as AirMed Traveler.[citation needed]

In 2011, AirMed International was named Official Air Ambulance of INDYCAR, the Izod IndyCar Series and Firestone Indy Lights.
