5-018.03A Medical Transportation

Medical transportation must be authorized only for a client to receive medical care under the following conditions:

1. To allow a client to receive a Nebraska Medicaid-coverable service.  It is the service which must be Medicaid coverable not necessarily the provider of the service (see 473-000-200).  For example, a physician visit (Medicaid coverable) at a Veterans Administration Hospital (not a Medicaid provider) would be coverable for transportation services; and

2. To allow a client to attend an adult day service program or a mental health adult day rehab program.
