6 JULY - 2022Innovation has played a major role in moving the world forward in mitigating health and safety risks for our most vulnerable--thereby pushing the Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) industry to evolve from mainly `transporting people' to delivery-based services. Moreover, with the new US Administration's renewed commitment to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) expanding Medicaid to low-income Americans, it has led to a significant investment in NEMT infrastructure to incorporate the needs of people with disabilities, maintain deliveries of medical and food supplies, and support autonomous vehicles and on-demand services. On this note, the NEMT industry is projected to reach USD 11,366.95 million by 2027 and grow at a CAGR of 6.97 percent over the forecast period. This accelerating growth is primarily attributed to NEMT ride digitalization, where companies are integrating 21st-century technology into transportation services. NEMT providers and care coordinators now have access to more invaluable messaging platforms and apps to schedule and monitor patient rides than ever before. These tools are leaving a tremendous impact on the healthcare industry, increasing access to care and leading to better health outcomes. On that note, this particular edition of the Healthcare Business Review brings forth the key developments in the NEMT space that are augmenting the standards of patient care. It features thought leadership articles from Brian Barnett, Director, Division of Transport Medicine, Children's National Hospital, who elucidates on the importance of using dispatch EMR systems for documentation of EMS consultations for patients coming into the emergency department and improving interfacility transport. The edition also features insights from Ann Blanchard, Director Patient Access and Capacity Management, Nebraska Medicine, who highlights the role of new-age contact centers in providing fast and efficient ambulatory care. Along with these critical insights from industry experts, the edition sheds light on top NEMT solutions from the most promising solution providers on the rise, including Myle Technologies, a company providing necessary resources to successfully plan, design, operate and provide on-demand transportation services and other innovative technologies that support microtransit, paratransit, fixed route, and more enhanced NEMT services that enhance quality care to patients at all times. We hope this edition will help you find the right NEMT solution provider that will empower you to reimagine medical transportation to improve patient lives by great lengths.
