The Disability Support Transportation program is a vital non-emergency medical transportation service designed to assist individuals with disabilities in accessing necessary medical appointments and services. This program primarily utilizes taxi services as a mode of transportation and is considered a public transit option for those who qualify. Riders must schedule their trips at least one day in advance and are given the flexibility to pay through various methods, including insurance, vouchers, coupons, donations, or even Medicaid payments. The program charges a membership fee or flat fee, and the pricing details are typically undefined. Additionally, riders can pre-pay for their trips, use credit cards, checks, or cash as acceptable payment methods. One of the standout features of this program is its provision of private rides, ensuring a more personalized and comfortable experience for riders. It also offers door-to-door transportation services, allowing individuals to be picked up and dropped off directly at their desired locations. The program's commitment to accessibility is further highlighted by permitting service animals on board and providing assistance with packages or bags when needed.
