Federal Transit Administration and CMS Announce Medicaid Transportation Coordination Fact Sheet
Building from the Medicaid Transportation Coverage Guide issued by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) in 2023, this fact sheet helps clarify and encourage partnership at the state level and includes commonly asked questions and relevant resources. Stakeholders, such as state Departments of Transportation staff, provided input into the document. Many FTA public transit grantees offer NEMT, providing vital access to health care for low-income Medicaid beneficiaries, particularly in rural areas. Research has found that Medicaid covers a relatively greater share of individuals in rural counties than in urban counties.
