The Veterans Transportation Service (VTS) is a specialized non-emergency medical transportation program catering to individuals who have served in the military. VTS offers convenient transportation services primarily through taxis but may also include private car rides, van services, and public transit options like buses and trains. Riders are required to schedule their trips in advance, ensuring prompt and reliable service.
One of the key aspects of VTS is its flexible payment options, which include insurance billing, vouchers, donations, Medicaid payments, check, credit card, and even cash. Pricing for the service is either free or available at a very low cost, depending on the individual veteran's circumstances. The program also allows for pre-payment, making it easier for riders to manage their transportation expenses.
VTS goes beyond merely providing rides by offering additional assistance to passengers, such as aiding with packages or bags and accommodating service animals. The program prides itself on its inclusive approach, enabling riders to access essential medical appointments, run errands, or attend social engagements with ease and peace of mind.
