The Wheelchair Accessible Transportation program provides a convenient and reliable non-emergency medical transportation service for older adults who require wheelchair-accessible vehicles. Operating as a public transit service, this program ensures safe and comfortable transportation via taxis or specially equipped vehicles, accommodating individuals with mobility needs. Riders can schedule their trips in advance, with options for on-demand scheduling available, allowing flexibility for various needs.
In terms of payment, the program offers a range of options, including insurance coverage, vouchers, donations, and Medicaid payments. The pricing structure includes a flat fee for trips within city limits, with additional mileage charges for destinations outside these boundaries. Riders can benefit from a 28% discount when paying on the same day of service, making the program financially accessible.
Notably, the service goes beyond transportation, offering assistance with packages or bags, door-to-door transportation, and the option for drivers to wait for passengers during errands or appointments. Service animals are permitted, and the program ensures a comfortable and inclusive experience for all riders. Whether it's a scheduled trip a few days or a week in advance, older adults can rely on the Wheelchair Accessible Transportation program for their mobility needs.
