Target

LogistiCare Solutions

Atlanta, Georgia, United States
LogistiCare (Atlanta, GA) is a leader in the non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) service sector. The company provides transportation services to governmental agencies and other human services organizations that are typically under cost pressures due to the increasing costs of healthcare and declining budgets. State Medicaid programs are required by federal regulation to provide recipients with access to and from medical encounters; however, states are often poorly equipped to efficiently and economically self perform and manage for this mission-critical transportation requirement.
