Patient Transportation Coordination Software for Hospitals and NEMT

VectorCare helps hospitals, health systems, payers, and NEMT networks replace phone trees, faxes, and fragmented portals with one automated patient transportation workflow. Coordinate discharge rides, ambulance transfers, interfacility transport, and vendor dispatch from inside existing clinical systems, with real-time visibility, HIPAA-secure collaboration, and measurable reductions in delays, length of stay, and manual coordination work.

Our Patient Transportation Coordination Software

End-to-end patient transportation technology for hospitals, payers, NEMT providers, and healthcare logistics networks.

Hospital Logistics

Coordinate NEMT, ambulance, air transport, discharge logistics, home health handoffs, and DME delivery from one platform built for hospital operations, case management, and IT teams.

Discharge Transport

Reduce discharge-to-departure delays by letting case managers schedule patient transport from inside Epic, automate vendor dispatch, and track ETAs in real time.

Interfacility Transfers

Structure ED-to-hospital, hospital-to-SNF, LTAC, rehab, home, ground, and air transfer workflows with level-of-service support and clinical context carried alongside each request.

Automated Dispatch

Use AI-powered automated dispatching to broadcast requests across contracted vendors, capture bids and ETAs, enforce policies, and reduce sequential phone calls.

Vendor Credentialing

Build and govern a credentialed network of NEMT, ambulance, air medical, home health, DME, and ancillary providers with compliance tracking and scorecards.

NEMT Broker Bypass

Enable payers and hospitals to contract directly with NEMT and ambulance providers, manage rate cards, automate dispatch, and reduce broker margin.

CEO and Founder

David Emanuel is the CEO and Founder of VectorCare, a company he has led for over 14 years in the healthcare industry.

Under his leadership, VectorCare has grown to serve 2,500+ healthcare facilities and process millions of patient logistics transactions. He writes a weekly newsletter called 'The Dispatch,' sharing insights on how to move patients better - no sales pitches, just patterns, data, and questions worth your time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Medicare cover patient transportation?

Original Medicare may cover medically necessary ambulance transportation when travel by other means could endanger the patient’s health, including certain hospital, skilled nursing, or dialysis-related situations. Routine non-emergency rides are generally not covered by Original Medicare, but some Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, and payer-sponsored plans include NEMT benefits. VectorCare helps organizations coordinate and govern transportation workflows; coverage decisions remain with the payer.
