Important Notice for MASA Members: Michigan Coverage Update (May 2026)
This notice is specifically for MARSP members enrolled in MASA (Medical Air Services Association). All other members may disregard.
Due to a regulatory change in the state of Michigan, MASA is unable to renew coverage for Michigan residents at this time. No further payments will be collected, and you may continue to submit eligible claims for services that occurred before your coverage end date.
MASA recently sent a letter to those enrolled in Michigan — this letter is valid. For questions or additional details, contact MASA directly at (833) 600-3731.
MASA is actively working with AMBA and MARSP to restore availability in Michigan and appreciates your patience during this transition.
