Medical Transport (NEMT)

Non-emergency medical transport moves people who cannot drive themselves to dialysis, treatment, and appointments. The trips are not street hails; they come from brokers, Medicaid managed-care plans, and facilities on contract. You are not buying a storefront; you are building a fleet, a credentialed operation, and a book of recurring trip contracts.

A fit if you…

  • Can win and hold broker, Medicaid, and facility contracts
  • Want recurring revenue from standing-order routes
  • Will run tight dispatch, routing, and on-time performance
  • Can manage credentialing, vehicle standards, and compliance
  • Can carry billing float while brokers and plans pay out

Probably not if you…

  • Expect to pick up street hails or walk-in fares
  • Dislike paperwork, credentialing, and broker billing
  • Can not carry payroll while claims sit unpaid
  • Expect high margins without dispatch discipline

This is just the surface

The full model is the complete, interactive deep-dive, and every business here is built to the same standard: a live economics simulator you tune to your own numbers, an interactive 3D walkthrough, a location scorecard, an owner-fit assessment, buy-versus-build guidance, and the full breakdown of how it makes money and what quietly kills margin.
