About NEMT Wire

The news wire for the people who actually carry the trips.

Non-emergency medical transportation moves millions of Medicaid members to dialysis, oncology, behavioral health and routine care every year — and the industry that does it runs on contracts, rates and rules that change constantly and are covered almost nowhere. Broker transitions strand operators. Rate changes land buried in state agency PDFs. Program sunsets are announced in provider memos nobody forwards.

NEMT Wire exists to cover that beat: broker contract awards and transitions, state rate and policy changes, compliance and insurance requirements, operations, and original data on the operators who make up this industry. Short, sourced, and written for owners and managers of NEMT companies — not for policy academics.

Who owns this

NEMT Wire is published by Thrive Risk Management Insurance Solutions, Inc., a California-licensed commercial insurance brokerage (CA License #6012320) based in Encino, California, which also operates the insurance brokerage site nemtinsurancepros.com. We say this plainly because you should know who is talking to you.

What that means in practice: we cover the whole industry, including brokers, carriers, software vendors and insurance topics where our parent company competes. Where a story touches our parent company's commercial interest, the article says so in-line. Our coverage of brokers, states and vendors is not for sale, and nobody pays to be covered or to be spared. The full rules are in our editorial policy.
