What Is Non-Emergency Medical Transportation?
NEMT is designed for scheduled healthcare travel when a medically stable passenger needs a transportation arrangement beyond an ordinary rideshare but does not require emergency ambulance care.
A non-emergency medical transportation trip may begin at a private residence, apartment, senior community, rehabilitation setting, nursing facility or hospital. The destination may be a doctor’s office, dialysis center, rehabilitation provider, hospital, outpatient clinic or another approved healthcare location.
The trip is reviewed around the passenger rather than only the address. Mobility, wheelchair use, transfer ability, building access, appointment timing, destination requirements and return-trip plans can all affect the transportation arrangement.
Palmer Medical Transport provides scheduled transportation only. For urgent or life-threatening symptoms, call 911.
