NEMT Brokers in California

California is the largest Medi-Cal market in the country, with more than 14 million enrollees and a county-based managed care model that routes all NEMT trips through contracted transportation brokers, not the state directly. To run a compliant NEMT business in California, you need a CPUC Charter-Party Carrier (TCP) permit, Medi-Cal enrolment through the DHCS PAVE portal, and credentialing with the brokers serving your target counties, primarily ModivCare, MTM and SafeRide Health.
