A standby call came in to the base. [Another] pilot and I discussed whether he would take the call or I would take the call. We decided that I would take the call. I acknowledged the call and gave my information and proceeded to build my crew and RA (Risk Analysis). I thought I submitted my RA. Like always; I wrote my Card number and RA number on my knee board. I then went and got ready for the flight. I was getting ready and waiting to see whether the call was going to be a go flight. The medical crew and I thought we heard our RA acknowledged. We were advised that this was now a go flight. The medical crew and I gathered our stuff and headed to the aircraft. We did our walk around and proceeded with startup. Prior to lifting we went through our pre-lift checklist. I was asked if the RA was acknowledged so as I always do. I checked the cell phone to see if the RA acknowledged text was there and it was. Therefore we preceded to take off and head to the hospital. Once I landed Company called and said they didn't have an RA. I immediately looked at the phone and it was the [other] pilot's RA that was acknowledged and not mine. So I logged in only to notice that I had saved my RA as a draft and not submitted it; so I submitted the RA and preceded with the flight once the patient was loaded.
