Medicaid may provide Non-Emergency Medical Transportation benefits for eligible members who need transportation to covered healthcare services. Coverage rules can vary by state, Medicaid program, eligibility, and the type of healthcare trip.
Transportation benefits may have specific requirements related to approved providers, medical appointments, authorization, and the passenger’s eligibility. Patients should check their Medicaid plan or program to understand the transportation benefits available to them.
