Non-emergency medical transport offers transportation services to patients and healthcare consumers who face a lack of reliable and secure transportation to their medical appointments in Massachusetts. Common barriers that affect underserved consumers include the following:
- Not having a working vehicle in the household
- Being unable to travel or wait for services alone
- The presence of a disability or chronic condition.
NEMT services in Tewksbury, Massachusetts, are intended for medical appointments and other forms of non-emergent care. These services offer transportation to and from medical appointments to promote safety and comfort. This makes NEMT services a convenient travel option for patients with chronic diseases.
Chronic conditions, especially among the elderly, make medical transportation in Massachusetts more important than ever.

With NEMT services, patients with chronic conditions can more easily book their appointments without the additional headache of finding secure transportation. This greatly increases access to vital treatments to make it easier to manage their symptoms. What’s more, personal support services put less strain on their loved ones and caregivers.
