GUARDIAN FLIGHT LLC is classified under the Air Ambulance taxonomy and its billed services are concentrated in fixed‑wing air transport codes, primarily A0430 (one‑way fixed wing transport) and A0435 (fixed wing air mileage). The presence of both per‑transport and per‑mile codes indicates the operation delivers conventional fixed‑wing patient transports and bills both journey and mileage units, consistent with an air ambulance service line.
Medicare revenue is highly concentrated: precomputed top 3 Medicare codes account for 100.0% of the provider's Medicare revenue, with A0430 contributing $222.5K (64.6% of Medicare revenue) and A0435 contributing $121.9K (35.4%). This concentration shows virtually all Medicare receipts are tied to fixed‑wing transport and mileage billing.
Medicaid revenue is similarly concentrated: precomputed top 3 Medicaid codes account for 100.0% of the provider's Medicaid revenue, with A0430 at $159.6K (50.1% of Medicaid revenue) and A0435 at $159.1K (49.9%). The near‑even split between A0430 and A0435 on the Medicaid side indicates Medicaid reimbursements for this provider are almost equally driven by per‑transport and per‑mile components.
On payer mix, Medicare and Medicaid revenues are comparable in scale — Medicare $344.7K versus Medicaid $318.7K — so the provider is not effectively single‑payer; both programs materially contribute to total public payer revenue and neither dominates by a large margin. Operational planning should therefore consider reimbursement and utilization dynamics across both programs.
Competitive standing for Medicare shows modest participation nationally: A0430 ranks #64 of 92 providers nationally (31th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume for this code) and A0435 ranks #60 of 92 (35th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume for this code). In Medicaid, both A0430 and A0435 rank #8 of 12 in‑state (36th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume for this code), placing the provider as a modest, non‑dominant participant in its state market.
Claim counts and per‑claim payments differ sharply between payers and codes, signaling different billing units or rate structures: Medicare shows 50 claims for A0430 with an average paid/claim of $4450 and 10.2K claims for A0435 with $12 avg paid/claim, while Medicaid shows 131 claims for A0430 with $1218 avg paid/claim and 132 claims for A0435 with $1205 avg paid/claim. These contrasts suggest Medicare reporting includes a high volume of small per‑mile line items (large claim count, low avg) versus Medicaid where per‑claim payments are substantially higher, implying different reimbursement mechanics or claim aggregation between the two payers.
The provider's NPI was enumerated on 2023-02-27 (~3 years ago), indicating relatively recent enrollment; this shorter tenure in the Medicare/Medicaid systems may help explain its modest percentile ranks and concentrated code mix as the organization establishes its payer relationships.
Because top codes account for 100.0% of revenue on both Medicare and Medicaid and both top codes are fixed‑wing air transport/mileage (A0430, A0435), the business is highly concentrated on a single service line. That concentration implies revenue sensitivity to utilization and reimbursement changes specific to fixed‑wing ambulance transport and mileage codes, and it underscores limited diversification within public‑payer billing.
