Accepted payment methods for Incidental Transportation include insurance, vouchers or coupons, donations, and Medicaid payments. Flexibility is key, with options for paying membership fees, flat fees, or even by the mile.

Additionally, the program allows for on-demand scheduling and even offers drivers who can wait for passengers to complete errands or attend appointments, providing a valuable sense of support and assistance for older adults on the move.
