¿Qué es el transporte médico no de emergencia?
Transporte médico no de emergencia (NEMT) is a benefit provided to Medi-Cal members who need help getting to and from medical appointments. Unlike ambulance services used for emergencies, NEMT is for scheduled medical visits where you don't need emergency care but do need a way to get there.
NEMT covers a wide range of medical appointments including doctor visits, specialist appointments, dialysis treatments, physical therapy sessions, pharmacy trips, lab work, mental health visits, and other medically necessary healthcare services.
In California, NEMT is a covered benefit under Medi-Cal. This means eligible members pay nothing — the transportation is completely free.
