Medicaid Transportation

Medicaid is required to assure transportation to medical appointments for all eligible individuals who need and request assistance with transportation. Transportation will be available if the recipient receives a Medicaid covered service provided by a qualified Medicaid provider (enrolled as a NC Medicaid provider). Medicaid only pays for the least expensive means suitable to the recipient’s needs. 

  

For questions about eligibility or scheduling, contact the NEMT unit at 828-694-6161 

 

For scheduling of Henderson County appointments, 3 days notice is required. 

For out-of-county appointments, 5 days notice is required.
