Time is Money: Best Solutions that Help NEMT Brokers Deliver On-Time Service

The “non-emergency” nature of NEMT does not suggest the lack of urgency of this vital service. The findings of the 2023 National Health Statistics Reports suggest that in the United States around 30% of medical appointments are missed annually, with patients citing that a significant portion of those were a result of transportation issues.
