Commercial insurance and Medicare can reimburse for Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) under specific conditions. - Medicare: Medicare Part B may cover NEMT services if they are deemed medically necessary and prescribed by a doctor. This typically includes transportation to and from medical appointments, tests, treatments, or hospital admissions. However, the coverage varies and often requires prior authorization. Medicare Advantage Plans (Part C) might offer additional transportation benefits, so it's important to check the specific plan details. - Commercial Insurance: Coverage for NEMT by private insurers varies significantly between policies and providers. Some health insurance plans do include NEMT as a benefit, especially if it's considered a medical necessity. However, the scope of what is covered (e.g., types of transportation, distance limits, number of trips) can differ greatly. In both cases, it's essential for patients or their caregivers to check with their insurance provider for specific coverage details, including any required documentation, prior authorization, and the process for claiming reimbursement. Note that we are a software company and you should always double check information with official governmental resources.

What's the average start up cost with 3 (6) passenger Vans and 1 wheelchair lift with a 6 bench seat in the rear. Approximately how much would this generate weekly
Yah, the rates would be per trip and the attendant fee would also be per trip, but it could vary from company to company. Some might charge a flat attendant fee and others might base that fee on mileage
We recommend to start using a software when you grow to 5-6 vehicles at least. Or if you plan to grow rapidly. Otherwise you can handle everything without NEMT dispatch software and save some money.
Thank you for the great info I was looking for to get started!
Glad it was helpful!
