The city of Artesia has renewed its contract for air ambulance service. That means the service will continue to be free for residents if they ever need it. The agreement means all permanent Eddy County residents are automatically enrolled in the Trans Aero Medevac membership program. No remaining balance will need to be paid by the patient if they need to be flown to a hospital. This benefit is only applicable if you are flown by Trans Aero Medevac.
