Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Tell your nurse or case manager early that you have no ride. Federal discharge rules require hospitals to start discharge planning early enough to avoid delays, and to include you and your caregivers in it. Once the day is known, book a ride home with us, and if you ride in a wheelchair, our wheelchair transportation keeps you seated in it.
Timing varies from patient to patient, and afternoon discharges are common. One study in the Journal of Hospital Medicine found that only 16.9% of discharges at the hospital it studied happened before noon. Ask the nurse for the expected time and give it when you book. Rides to later visits can be booked through transportation for medical appointments.
It comes down to the trip: the pickup address, the destination, and whether the rider uses a wheelchair.
Federal discharge rules require the hospital to give you a list of Medicare-participating rehab, nursing, or home health options and to respect your choice. Rides to therapy after you settle in can be booked through physical therapy transportation. If your care continues after discharge, we also offer dialysis transportation and cancer treatment transportation.
No, Michigan law requires a patient who must travel lying flat to go in a licensed medical vehicle with a trained crew, not a wheelchair van. Our rides, including senior transportation, are for riders who walk or sit in a wheelchair.
