For many King County residents, getting to a medical appointment is more complicated than it sounds. If you don't drive, rely on a wheelchair, or have a condition that makes riding the bus unsafe, non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) can be a lifeline.
What Is NEMT?
Non-emergency medical transportation is professional transportation to and from medical appointments for people who cannot safely use standard transportation. Unlike ambulances, NEMT is for appointments that are medically necessary but not emergencies — dialysis, physical therapy, specialist visits, and hospital discharges.
Who Needs NEMT in King County?
- Dialysis patients who require transportation three times per week to treatment centers in Seattle, Renton, Kent, and Federal Way
- Wheelchair users who need ADA-compliant vehicles with hydraulic lifts and secure locking systems
- Elderly residents who no longer drive but need regular access to medical care
- Post-surgery patients who cannot drive themselves home from hospital discharge
- Patients with chronic conditions requiring frequent specialist visits
