Some individuals face transportation challenges in accessing their medical appointments, relying on family and friends or even local organisations to transport them when needed.
Non-emergency medical transport (NEPTS) can fill in the gap providing an efficient service to those who need it.
What are some of the benefits of NEPTS?
Accessibility
It is very common for people who need to visit a medical provider on a regular basis to require transporting.
Non-emergency medical transport is helpful to those with mobility problems as the service can be tailored to the specific needs of patients. Most vehicles used in non-emergency medical transport can handle wheelchairs and other mobility equipment, allowing clients to travel easily to all their appointments.
Greater confidence in safety
The majority of non-emergency medical transport workers have previously worked as nurses and drivers. These individuals usually have recent professional certifications and receive ongoing training to maintain their qualifications.
Affordability
There are different types of transportation used for non-emergency patients, with each varying in price. However, when compared to traditional ambulances, they are far cheaper, non-emergency medical is typically 10 times less expensive.
