Airmedic Joins the FADOQ Network Across Québec

Emergency Medical Service: Airmedic Partners with Réseau FADOQ

Saint-Hubert, July 10, 2023 – Airmedic, which provides emergency air medical services throughout Québec, is pleased to announce its partnership with the Réseau FADOQ. Through this exclusive collaboration, 550,000 FADOQ members now receive a 20% discount on all Airmedic protection plans.

From now on, this partnership allows FADOQ members to save year-round on emergency medical coverage. Indeed, they benefit from a 20% discount on all Airmedic protections. As a result, the company provides not only optimal safety, but also peace of mind, families know that in the event of an accident, qualified professionals will take care of their loved ones.

“A partnership with the Réseau FADOQ was a natural fit for Airmedic. We are proud to align with local organizations that, like us, are dedicated to the well-being of Québec residents. Therefore, we look forward to seeing this collaboration grow over time, for the benefit of our members,” explained Sophie Larochelle, Chief Executive Officer of Airmedic.

“The Réseau FADOQ is pleased to form this new partnership with Airmedic, a Québec-based company offering unique services across the province. Thanks to this agreement, our members can take advantage of preferred pricing on available protections. Since many live far from hospital centers, this initiative aligns perfectly with our mission,” added Gisèle Tassé-Goodman, President of the Réseau FADOQ.
