HealthTran Connects Patients to Transportation

It’s a story that plays out across the health care system every day. A patient is able to keep their initial appointment. Then as the follow-up visits and referrals to specialty clinics are scheduled, the difficulties begin. An injury prevents the patient from driving. The family member or friend they relied on for a ride can’t take more time off work. The next appointment is missed, then the next and the patient’s condition worsens.

Missouri:

  • Cass County — $2,130,501

  • Jackson County — $20,555,355
  • Lafayette County — $657,105
