            <content:encoded><![CDATA[Missed pickups in Non-Emergency Medical Transportation are rarely random events. They are the predictable result of manual dispatch systems operating under conditions they were never built to handle. Static schedules, delayed driver visibility, fragmented communication, and human cognitive overload combine to create daily operational failures that ripple across patients, facilities, and providers. As trip volumes grow and compliance expectations tighten, manual dispatch no longer fails occasionally. It fails structurally.]]></content:encoded>
