New Health Care Utility Set to Transform Transport Medicine

New Health Care Utility Set to Transform Transport Medicine

Murray, Utah  — March 9, 2026 — Six leading nonprofit organizations are joining forces to improve medical transport in the respective areas they serve across the country. Advocate Health, Flight For Life Wisconsin, HealthNet Aeromedical Services, Intermountain Health, MedFlight of Ohio, and Vanderbilt Health Medical Center, all collaborating with the Mindshare Institute, have created a new, nonprofit transport medicine Health Care Utility known as Aeroterra Health. The utility will leverage its collective size and strength to share resources aimed at solving longstanding, systemic problems in the medical transport industry, while reducing the cost of related products and services.

This alliance will enhance united action among nonprofit medical transport providers, resulting in greater safety, financial sustainability for the market, continued access, and the health and advancement of transport medicine. As a member-governed business, Aeroterra Health will empower participating organizations to shape the future of medical transport through shared authority, transparency, and complementary values.

“Collaboration across the medical transport industry is essential,” said Clinton V. Burley, President and CEO of HealthNet Aeromedical Services. “By joining forces with like-minded programs, we can maximize safety, reduce operating costs, maintain access, and further advance our field. We are excited to work together as partner organizations to build a stronger, more sustainable future for medical transport.”

The Mindshare Institute, a recently launched nonprofit focused on creating Health Care Utilities (HCUs) to structurally transform healthcare, is guiding the formation of Aeroterra Health, the first of many Mindshare-initiated utilities.

Aeroterra Health will invite other aligned medical transport programs, health systems, and strategic partners to join in the mission of advancing safety and sustainability in transport medicine, a critical part of the U.S. healthcare ecosystem.
