The Medical Assistance Transportation Program (MATP) is a public transit program designed to provide transportation options for individuals receiving Medicaid payments. Through this program, older adults can access transportation via bus or train to get to their medical appointments and other essential services. One of the key benefits of MATP is that it offers curb-to-curb transportation, ensuring that riders are safely transported from their pick-up location to their destination.
Participants of the MATP program are only required to pay approximately 15% of the trip cost, making it an affordable option for older adults who rely on Medicaid for their healthcare needs. It's important for older adults to schedule their rides at least a few days in advance to secure their transportation arrangements. The convenience and cost-effectiveness of MATP make it a valuable resource for older adults seeking reliable transport for their medical needs.
