NEMT is used extensively by a small number of beneficiaries:

  • Aged and disabled persons are the most frequent users when compared to other eligibility groups
  • Beneficiaries diagnosed with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) use NEMT most frequently
  • Those with intellectual or developmental disabilities and serious mental illnesses also use NEMT more frequently than those with none of these conditions
  • NEMT users primarily ride in a van or taxi—which includes Uber and Lyft
  • The most common NEMT destinations are to the home or a physician’s office
