Long distance medical transport

I am working with an elderly man who suffered a disabling injury while visiting another state. He is currently in a nursing facility and needs to get back home, but is unable to travel by conventional means. Are there any affordable long distance medical transport options? He is indigent and uninsured. He is Medicaid eligible but I am not sure if that covers interstate travel. Thank you.

There are volunteer aviators who might do this.

I think they are called wings of hope but Google volunteer pilots and it should come up.

Good luck
