MARKET OPPORTUNITY

Why Nursing Homes Need a
Dedicated Transport Partner

Long-term care facilities generate some of the highest transport volume in the Bronx — and most are underserved by inconsistent, on-demand providers with no standing agreements.

80+
SNFs & ALFs in the Bronx

Over 80 skilled nursing and assisted living facilities in the Bronx generate daily transport needs — most without a reliable contracted provider.

15–40
Transports Per Facility/Month

The average 100-bed SNF generates 15–40 medical transports per month for dialysis, appointments, hospital returns, and specialist visits.

72%
Residents Need Recurring Transport

Nearly 3 in 4 long-term care residents require recurring medical transport — dialysis, therapy, or specialist visits — on a weekly or monthly basis.

The Standing Contract Advantage

Facilities with standing transport contracts eliminate the daily scramble for transport. Your staff stops making 10 calls to find a crew — and your residents get consistent, familiar faces who know their needs.

Every transport includes HIPAA-compliant PCRs, Medicaid billing support, and documentation that meets CMS requirements for SNF and ALF regulatory compliance — reducing your audit risk.
