Just a helicopter enthusiast from north central Pennsylvania, between Williamsport and the NY border. Saw today that UPMC Williamsport will be a level 2 trauma center starting 9/1. My question is - I see many flights from southern NY and northern PA fly over Williamsport to take trauma patients to the Level 1 in Danville. As Williamsport will be a level 2, will those flights now go to Williamsport instead. Thanks for answers, just not sure if a helciotper would fly over a level 2 to get to a level 1. |

teaching. No other difference so you wouldn't fly past a two. |

Where is the nearest UPMC helicopter or does Geisinger rule that area? |

Trolling I’m sure but, YES! We will fly you 50 miles past a hospital that can completely treat you to get to level 1 for your broken wrist and charge you another $20K. Pro tip; never, ever tell the medics that you have really good insurance. |

You really can't work air medical in Pennsylvania without being corrupt, illiterate and semi-retarded. PA EMS NEVER does the right thing. Trauma desinations will make no difference. The gene pool is just as stupid as before the designations. |
