The DHS Coordinated Transportation program offers older adults convenient access to non-emergency medical transportation through services provided by taxis and public transit. To utilize the program, older adults need to schedule their rides at least one day in advance. The program accepts various forms of payment, including insurance, vouchers, coupons, and donations. Additionally, there are options for membership fees, flat fees, and Medicaid payments, though pricing details may vary.
This paratransit program ensures that older adults receive personalized assistance, such as help with packages and bags, as well as accommodating service animals during the ride. The transportation services include cars, vans, buses, and trains, with options for private or shared rides, depending on individual preferences. Riders can pay using a variety of methods, including credit cards, checks, cash, and even pre-payment.
The program caters to the needs of older adults by offering door-to-door and curb-to-curb transportation services, allowing for flexibility in scheduling and efficient travel to appointments or errands. With the added convenience of on-demand scheduling and the option for drivers to wait while passengers complete tasks, the DHS Coordinated Transportation program aims to make travel easier and more accessible for older adults.
