You can download a copy of the Mileage Reimbursement Trip Log here.

Mileage Reimbursement is a program to reimburse a member’s friend, neighbor or relative at a rate of $0.30 per mile from the member’s residence to the Medicaid paid service and the return trip home.

Prior to the appointment for the Medicaid covered service, you will need to call Modivcare to schedule the transportation. When scheduling mileage reimbursement trips, you will need the name of the person who will be transporting the member as well as their telephone number, mailing address, and social security number.

The member can call our Reservations line at 866-412-3778.

Reservations are taken may be made up to 4PM 3-business days before the medical appointment unless greater urgency can be verified with the physician or facility.

In order to be reimbursed, a Mileage Reimbursement TripLog will need to be completed. The physician’s office must sign the trip log. The payee will mail the completed signed trip log to Modivcare’s Claims Department for processing. Either you or the client will still need to call Modivcare before the trip(s) is made to get a trip number for the trip log. If you fail to call in ahead of time the driver will not receive reimbursement. The driver will be issued a check 3-4 weeks after Modivcare’s Claims Department receives the Mileage Reimbursement Trip Log.

2. Ask the patient if they live on a bus route.

• Modivcare supplies a number of area hospitals with bus tickets for their qualifying Medicaid patients.
• Bus tickets are usually managed by either your social work or emergency department

• A patient cannot call in a request for their own discharge transportation.

Modivcare offers a facility staff that is dedicated to handling the reoccurring non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) needs of eligible Medicaid members with regular appointments at healthcare facilities as well as assisting hospitals with transportation for eligible members being discharged.

Trips for routine appointments as well as recurring services such as dialysis, chemo, etc. presently require a 3-business day notice. In some cases, with verification, Modivcare can provide same-day, next day, trips. These trips are considered urgent, but non-emergent and include such things as hospital discharges. Transportation reservations may be taken with less than the usually required 3-business day notice if they are of an urgent nature but still non-emergent nature such as hospital discharges.
