How NEMT Works

A Step-by-Step Guide to the Process

Understanding the Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) process is essential for anyone involved in healthcare transportation logistics. This guide breaks down the NEMT process step-by-step:

  • State Medicaid Agencies and Health Plans. They authorize and fund NEMT trips, ensuring eligible patients receive necessary Medicaid transportation services to their medical appointments.
  • NEMT Brokers. Brokers act as intermediaries who coordinate between healthcare organizations and transportation providers, streamlining the scheduling and management of NEMT services.
  • Transportation Providers. These are the companies or individuals responsible for transporting patients. They must comply with all regulations and prioritize patient safety throughout the journey.
