What is NEMT?

Non-emergency medical transport (NEMT) is a transport service that brings individuals who are not in an emergency situation to their medical appointments. NEMT supports not just regular primary care visits, but a range of services, such as recurring treatments, physical therapy and mental health appointments. The availability of reliable and accessible transport is critical to both patients and healthcare providers.

Challenges NEMT stakeholders face:

Patients face several challenges when it comes to keeping their medical appointments. Those with the most limited options in keeping appointments are often the elderly or from low-income households. Compounding this is the fact that taxi costs are unsustainable for regular appointments (including for dialysis and preventative service appointments), especially among those patients from a lower income group.
