Non-emergency medical transportation

expandedYear 1Patients
Today

A Medicaid benefit, often poorly run by brokers; absent from Medicare and most private plans.

Under the plan

UHP covers rides to care for people with disabilities, older people with functional limits, and low-income people (as the Medicare for All Act does).

Trade-off

Reduces missed appointments; a fraud-prone benefit that needs tight program-integrity controls.
