Can I travel with the patient?

Yes. We have room for one additional person to ride along with the patient if they wish. They will ride in a leather captains chair that reclines, right next to the patient. There is never any extra charge for this. The only exceptions are if the rider is also a patient that needs care, or if the transport exceeds the duration that requires we add an additional driver. That would take up the extra seat leaving no extra room for a passenger.

Benefits of Traveling with a Patient

Traveling with a patient can provide significant emotional support during what may be a stressful experience. Having a trusted companion by their side can help alleviate anxiety and make the journey more comfortable for the patient. Additionally, the accompanying person can assist with communication, ensuring that any specific needs or concerns are conveyed to our staff. This collaborative effort not only enhances the patient’s experience but also helps to create a more relaxed atmosphere during the transport.

Safety Measures for Passengers

At Managed Medical Transport, Inc., we prioritize the safety of both patients and accompanying passengers. Our vehicles are equipped with safety features to ensure a secure ride. The leather captain’s chair is designed for comfort but also includes safety restraints to keep passengers secure during transit. We encourage all passengers to wear seat belts at all times, as safety is our utmost priority. Furthermore, our drivers are trained to handle various situations, providing peace of mind to both patients and their companions.

Planning Your Trip

When planning a trip with a patient, it’s important to communicate any special needs or accommodations in advance. This allows us to prepare accordingly and ensure a smooth journey. Consider discussing the patient’s preferences, such as preferred stops or the need for any medical equipment during the ride. Our team is dedicated to providing a tailored experience, and we welcome any questions or special requests you may have to enhance your travel experience with us.

Can I pay in installments or will I receive a balance after the trip?

To book a transport and reserve a date, we require a 50% deposit that is fully refundable as long as we are given a 72 hour notice prior to the scheduled pickup time. The 50% balance is due on the business day before the transport. MMT does not bill out or finance transportation. We do, however, take most major credit cards, and allow you to split up the payments on as many as you choose.

Understanding Your Payment Options

When planning your medical transport with Managed Medical Transport, Inc., it’s essential to understand your payment options clearly. As mentioned, a 50% deposit is required to confirm your booking, which allows us to secure your date and time. This deposit is a commitment that ensures your transportation needs are prioritized. If you need to cancel or reschedule, the fully refundable nature of this deposit, provided you give us at least a 72-hour notice, offers peace of mind.

For the remaining balance, we encourage our clients to make arrangements that suit their financial situation. While we do not offer financing options, our policy allows you to split the payment across multiple credit cards, making it easier to manage costs. This flexibility can be particularly beneficial for families or individuals who may need to coordinate payments among several parties.

Additional Payment Considerations

It’s important to note that all payments must be completed by the business day before your scheduled transport. This ensures that we can process your payment and prepare for the journey without any delays. We accept most major credit cards, which provides you with a secure and convenient way to handle transactions. If you have any specific questions about the payment process or require assistance, our customer service team is available to help you navigate any concerns you may have.

At MMT America, we strive to provide not just transportation, but also a hassle-free experience from booking to arrival. Understanding your payment responsibilities can help you focus on what truly matters—getting the care you need when you need it.
