In recent years, we have heard more attention being focused on the social factors that complicate health and medical care. One of these factors is access to transportation, which has long been an issue in Medicare coverage. In this episode, We are joined by Andrea Osborne, VMD Senior VP of Delegated Services to discuss the complicated rules for non-emergency ambulance transportation. Andrea shares with us some recent changes that may have an impact on patients and some guidance for the primary care workforce on how to address these issues.
