Answer 2

Answer:

• Ambulatory Transportation

Ambulance transportation is hailed in the instance of an emergency – let’s say you are in a car accident or fall and badly injure your leg and are unable to drive to the hospital, or perhaps even move.

• Non-emergency Medical Transportation

Non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) is offered to patients who require an additional level of care and support at a far more affordable cost than emergency ambulance transportation. It caters to patients in wheelchairs, patients who are bed-ridden, as well as bariatric patients, or patients with special health or safety concerns.

• Stretcher Transportation

Stretcher medical transportation is reserved for patients who are bed-ridden and cannot get up or move into a sitting position. There are many different reasons that a patient may be confined to a stretcher for transportation. A specialized vehicle is required to safely transport stretchers.

• Wheelchair Transportation

Patients confined to a wheelchair or who cannot walk independently require the extra assistance provided by wheelchair transportation. In some cases, patients can be moved from their wheelchair into a vehicle seat, in other instances patients are more comfortable remaining in their chair. Vehicles must be outfitted with the appropriate restraints and hookups to secure the chair in the vehicle so that it remains stable no matter what.

• Door-through-door Transportation

Patients may require door-through-door transportation if they need assistance getting out of their home and into their appointment. This involves trained drivers entering the residence and physically assisting the patient into a wheelchair, onto a stretcher, or simply helping them to walk out of their home.

• Curb-to-curb transportation

When patients require curb-to-curb transportation, that means they are picked up at the curb and then dropped off at the curb when they reach their destination. This is a less hands-on approach to non-emergency medical transportation.

• Long Distance NEMT

Long distance NEMT may vary based upon the company you book a ride with. At Stellar Transportation, it involves traveling over 50 miles from your starting location. NEMT may be required for a trip to a neighboring city, or perhaps clear across the country.
