Eight years ago, in 2018, NEMTAC® became an ANSI-Accredited Standards Developer for the non-emergency medical transportation industry.

Since then, NEMTAC® standards have helped define how the industry approaches quality, documentation, workforce competency, and accountability — developed through a consensus process open to providers, brokers, health plans, and state agencies across the country.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of the first eight years. The work continues — and so does the conversation, at NEMTAC Transform™ 2026, August 16–19, 2026, in Orlando.

One of the bigger questions coming out of the NEMTAC® National NEMT Rate & Cost Structure Survey may not just be reimbursement levels.

It may be long-term positioning.

If a transportation model is built only around moving an ambulatory passenger from point A to point B, providers will likely continue facing increasing pressure from:
• TNC-based transportation
• Advanced routing technology
• Autonomous vehicle development
• New mobility platforms

That raises an important question for the industry:

What services can NEMT providers deliver that technology and commodity transportation models cannot easily replace?

Many providers are already evolving toward:
• Assisted transportation services
• Door-through-door support
• Wheelchair and stretcher transportation
• VA transportation partnerships
• Low-acuity healthcare transportation partnerships
• Mobility support services requiring trained personnel
• Higher-accountability transportation models

The survey findings also highlighted substantial variation in:
• Levels of Service
• operational exposure
• transportation activities
• trip complexity
• wait-time exposure
• rural operational challenges

Not all transportation services involve the same operational complexity, training, passenger support requirements, or risk exposure.

What changes are you seeing in your market?

What business models do you believe are most sustainable over the next 5–10 years?

NEMTAC® has released the Final Phase 2 Report for the 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗡𝗘𝗠𝗧 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 & 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘆.

The survey included responses across:
• Urban, suburban, rural, and frontier markets
• Ambulatory, wheelchair, and stretcher transportation
• Multiple Levels of Service (LOS)
• Multiple operational and payer environments

Several themes appeared consistently throughout the findings, including:
• wait-time exposure
• deadhead mileage exposure
• cancellation and no-show exposure
• LOS differentiation variability
• transportation mode variation
• rural operational challenges
• long-term sustainability concerns

The findings also highlighted substantial variation in:
• transportation activities
• operational complexity
• reimbursement structures
• trip viability experiences
• sustainability perceptions

One of the broader questions raised by the report is whether the industry has fully differentiated the operational realities between different transportation activities and Levels of Service.

As healthcare transportation, mobility technology, and transportation models continue evolving, these discussions may become increasingly important for the future of NEMT.
