Lack of transportation is one of the most commonly cited barriers to healthcare, especially for patients with Medicaid.

On Monday at 2:15 eastern, Buck Poropatich, VP of Lyft Healthcare, is joining Health Tech Nerds Discussions to chat about what the NEMT business looks like operationally, what they’re seeing and hearing from states and payers about needs, and where NEMT is headed in the coming years.
