Lifetime revenue by payer source (source: CMS Medicare & Medicaid claims data)
| Payer Source | Total Paid |
|---|---|
| Medicaid | $79M |
| Medicare | $34.1M |
LIFE FLIGHT NETWORK LLC bills substantially more to Medicaid than to Medicare, with reported lifetime Medicaid revenue of $79M versus Total Medicare revenue of $34.1M, indicating Medicaid is the larger payer relationship for this operation. This payer mix positions the provider as effectively Medicaid-dominant by revenue scale while maintaining meaningful Medicare activity.
The provider’s code mix is textbook air-ambulance: the top Medicare and Medicaid revenue drivers are air-transport and air-mileage codes (A0431, A0436, A0430), which signals an operational focus on both rotary- and fixed-wing transports plus associated mileage-based billing. Presence of specialty care transport A0434 in the top Medicaid contributors further indicates capability to perform high-acuity interfacility transfers and staffed specialty transports in addition to conventional airlift.
Medicare revenue is highly concentrated: the precomputed top-3 Medicare codes by revenue account for 86.9% of this provider’s total Medicare revenue, driven primarily by A0431 ($16.6M, 48.5% of Medicare revenue), A0436 ($8.9M, 25.8%), and A0430 ($4.3M, 12.6%). These three codes dominate Medicare billing and suggest that one-way air transports and associated rotary-wing mileage are the core Medicare revenue streams.
Medicaid revenue is likewise concentrated but with a slightly broader mix: the precomputed top-3 Medicaid codes by revenue account for 77.6% of total Medicaid revenue, led by A0431 ($32.5M, 41.2%), A0436 ($14.8M, 18.7%), and A0430 ($14M, 17.7%). Specialty care transport A0434 is also material in Medicaid ($7.4M, 9.4%) and is flagged as an extreme outlier in-state, indicating significant Medicaid demand for higher-acuity or specialized transfers.
On Medicare competitive standing, LIFE FLIGHT NETWORK is a national leader for its top air-ambulance codes: A0431 and A0436 each rank #2 of 348 providers nationally at the 100th percentile and are labeled extreme outliers, and A0430 ranks #2 of 92 (99th percentile). Those ranks and extreme-outlier designations indicate volumes and paid amounts far above typical national peers for the core rotary- and fixed-wing transport services.
Within Oregon Medicaid markets the provider is dominant across the same core codes: A0431, A0436 and A0430 all rank #1 in-state (100th percentile) and A0434 ranks #1 of 21 providers in-state and is described as an extreme outlier. These in-state rankings point to a regional market-leading position for both routine air transport and specialty care transport under Medicaid.
Operational footprint evidence: high reported mileage and claim counts (Medicare A0436 285.5K claims and A0435 202.9K claims; Medicaid A0436 18.8K claims and A0435 8.2K claims) imply substantial mileage-based billing consistent with long-distance or frequent interfacility air missions. The coexistence of both rotary-wing and fixed-wing volume (A0431 and A0430 significant on both payers) suggests a mixed-fleet operation capable of responding to variable mission distances and acuity.
Tenure and scale support the billing profile: the NPI was enumerated 2007-08-22 (~19 years ago), and the provider’s multi-decade presence correlates with the ability to build both national Medicare outlier volumes and state-level Medicaid dominance; this longevity is consistent with an established air-ambulance operator rather than a recent entrant.
