About Us

Hospice Angel Flight uses airline tickets to provide senior and hospice patient travel. HAF does not duplicate any of the efforts of any other charity.

Senior and hospice patients may use this service to go to and from distant specialized medical evaluations, diagnosis or treatments. Patients may make multiple trips and there is no age limit. Patients are asked to verify financial hardship and the patient’s primary physician will be asked to sign a form indicating that the travel is for essential and necessary medical care.

Patients may access help supported by HAF by calling the National Patient Travel HELPLINE at 800-296-1217. Information specialists will talk with the patient and determine the exact travel need and then refer the patient to the best type of assistance.

The facilitation of free or reduced-rate airline ticket travel for senior and hospice patients is all coordinated through the National Patient Travel Center which is located in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Nationally, scores of senior and hospice patients travel every month through these charitable or reduced-rate means – making it possible for them to get the best possible specialized care and the best chance for life.

Patients no longer need turn down the option for more specialized care at some distant medical facility for lack of a financial means to travel for the treatments.
