2 WHO NEEDS SKYMED? There is a simple answer: anyone who travels more than 100 air miles from their home as a vacationer, business traveler, timeshare owner, vacation club member or one of North America's growing number of recreational vehicle owners. SkyMed is not to be confused with look-a-like companies, who in their fine print, promise to take the traveler to the nearest medical facility. That is not taking you home. SkyMed is often imitated, never duplicated. Should a critical illness or injury occur while traveling, SkyMed air repatriates our members to their home and the comfort of their medical care providers and more often than not, to the member's health insurance coverage area so financial implications will be minimized. Professional bonded drivers return stranded vehicles. All this and more, without copays, deductibles or cumbersome claim forms. When it comes to the leader in unmatched medical air repatriation memberships, SkyMed is the one by which all others are measured. If you do not have a SkyMed membership, you do not have the industry gold standard. Our goal is simply to be The Most consumer-sensitive emergency air repatriation membership company in the world.

3 REPARED FOR THE UNEXPECTED! THE RV TRAVELER John Lesh, WBCCI member, had been experiencing problems with his leg prior to departing from his home in York, PA. However, his doctor had pronounced him fit for travel, so the Lesh's packed their RV and left for Florida. The Lesh's had only been in Florida for a short while when John developed osteomyelitis of his ankle and had to be admitted to the hospital. Wrote his wife, Dot, "John was on IV antibiotics and had to keep his foot elevated because of the infection. The doctor said there was no way he could return to York on a commercial flight." Continues John, "My wife called SkyMed. We were very pleased with your prompt response to our difficult problems. Facing an immediate lower leg amputation, we decided we needed to go back to York, PA to our own hospital and doctor. The SkyMed benefits are great, and I had excellent care by the air ambulance crew. The transport driver pulled up with our RV, and even backed the trailer into our yard beside the garage for us! We have already recom mended SkyMed to our friends. All services were 100%." Without SkyMed: $16,000 With SkyMed: No Cost! THE TIMESHARE TRAVELER Tom and Gail Sexton were vacationing in Cancun, when Gail became gravely ill and had to be taken to a local hospital. Torn called SkyMed to alert us to his wife's hospitalization, and to inquire as to what their options for transport home to Ohio were? Initially, Tom thought a commercial flight might work, but it became quickly apparent that Gail's illness was severe enough where a commercial flight home was out of the question. As soon as SkyMed received word that Gail was stable enough to be transported, arrangements were made and a flight arranged. The air ambulance arrived in Cancun around 2:00 pm, an ambulance was dispatched to AMAT hospital and Gail, accompanied by Tom, was in the air by 4:00 pm. The air ambulance arrived in Cincinnati around 9:00 pm. Aground ambulance transported Gail directly to Deaconess Hospital, where she was immediately admitted to the critical care unit. Thank you, SkyMed. Without SkyMed: $19,000 With SkyMed: No Cost! THE RV TRAVELER Escapees Shirley and Walt Greenes were in Ashland, OR, when Shirley became ill and was rushed to the emergency room of the local hospital. Shirley wrote, "The doctor at the hospital felt that due to previous surgery, he would not be able to perform the surgery now needed. It became imperative that I get back to Los Angeles as quickly as possible. My husband made one call to SkyMed. They took care of everything to expedite my return. There were no questions asked, no money expected from us...just a job well done. I was taken by ambulance to a waiting jet, flown to Los Angeles with two nurses in attendance, met at the airport by another ambulance and taken directly to Cedars Sinai Hospital. One phone call provided me with a service I cannot praise highly enough. We were lucky to be SkyMed members. " Without SkyMed: $11,000 With SkyMed: No Costl THE SHORT-TERM TRAVELER While holidaying at their timeshare in Cancun, Mexico, Paul and Audrey Williams faced the incredible dilemma of any traveling family; their S-year old son, Paul Jr., was faced with a critical illness, which demanded young Paul's immediate repatriation to their home medical care providers in Maryland. Within a matter of hours, SkyMed dispatched a medically equipped and staffed jetto return the Williams family home. In a telephone call to President Will Klein, Mr. Williams again expressed their gratitude and asked for applications to share with family and friends. He said, "When I relate what SkyMed did for us, my friends are stunned that such a service is available. They raise their eyebrows when Itell them SkyMed took us home on a jet. It is almost as though they don't believe it!" Mr. Williams said, "Everybody who travels has to know about SkyMed. " Without SkyMed: $19,700 With SkyMed: No Costl
