Specifically, the study demonstrates that KPIs related to response times, medical equipment readiness, and crew training are pivotal in reducing medical emergency response times by 25% and increasing passenger satisfaction by 30%. Moreover, compliancefocused KPIs contributed to a 40% improvement in adherence to regulations, while financial KPIs facilitated a 25% reduction in the costs associated with Aero Medical Services. These results underscore the critical role of KPIs in advancing Aero Medical Services, offering a blueprint for airlines to achieve excellence in patient care and operational management. The study concludes with recommendations for implementing a KPI-driven approach and suggests avenues for future research, including the exploration of technology integration and comparative analyses across different airline models and regulatory environments.
