Have you ever wondered how accessible ride providers handle out-of-state or long distance transportation challenges for disabled patients? Patients may need to get to essential appointments outside of Arizona, but sometimes, their condition may make them unable to fly.
Arizona, like many other states, faces several challenges to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) regulation compliance despite efforts to raise awareness. This is due to gaps in understanding among businesses, organizations, and the public about their obligations and the rights of those in the disabled community.
Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) Service companies, like HealthLift, offer wheelchair-accessible rides for patients, while also providing transportation for any reason an individual that uses a wheelchair might need to get around.
