• Cruz Roja Colombiana: Colombian Red Cross chapter providing prehospital emergency response, ambulance services, and first-aid training nationwide. A broader emergency-services incumbent that overlaps with AMI's emergency response core.
• AXA Colpatria: Large Colombian insurer (AXA/Casa de Bolsa joint venture) offering health and assistance products that can include medical emergency support. A broad incumbent whose insurance bundles compete with AMI's prepaid subscription model.

Emerging players
