Non-Emergency Medical Transportation
Here’s how wheelchair and stretcher services are utilized for NEMT
Both wheelchair and stretcher transportation services are part of Wecare4you’s NEMT benefit in North Carolina. Medicaid recipients can access these services if they are deemed medically necessary. Providers of NEMT services must comply with state and federal regulations regarding the equipment and vehicles used for these services, as well as training requirements for staff.
Wheelchair Transportation Services
For individuals who are unable to walk or require assistance with mobility but do not need an ambulance, wheelchair-accessible vehicles are used. These vehicles are equipped with ramps or lifts to safely load and unload passengers in wheelchairs.
The service is often used for those attending routine medical appointments, physical therapy, dialysis, or other non-emergency medical visits.
