Let's see if we get the logic. Experimental technology, with very limited, finite power supply. Small light aircraft with low rotor inertia that's more of a sightseeing or training platform, and the intent is to use it for a life-critical movement of transplant organs from the airport to the hospital. We already have very capable aircraft with full instrumentation and well qualified crew, that have ranges of up to two and a half hours, not fifteen minutes, ready to do that mission, and fully equipped.

What does using the experiemental, cheap, low-inertia electric helicopter bring to the table that can't or shouldn't be done by existing aircraft and technology?
