Non-Emergency Medical Transportation Market was estimated to be US$ 8,172.31 Mn in 2018 and is expected to reach US$ 12,677.58 Mn by 2027 growing at a CAGR of 4.9% over the Forecast Period Owing To The Increase In Geriatric Population that Requires Non-Emergency Medical Transportation, says Absolute Markets Insights
Several countries around the globe have a 24*7 helpline for emergency medical services. Non-emergency medical care is an attractive market that is seeing a significant growth during the last few years. The unavailability of vehicles or the inability to use vehicles during certain conditions drives the citizens towards non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) services. Progression in internet technology coupled with the proliferation of smart devices has allowed the NEMT service providers to reach more customers through mobile applications. Uber Technologies Inc., for instance, has introduced their Uber Health program in the U.S. that caters to the needs of the general population. Transportation services can be availed on demand using this platform. Furthermore, the rise in the geriatric population plays a significant part in the growth of the global non-emergency medical transportation market. According to the United Nation’s World Population Prospects 2019, around 17% of the global population will be above the age of 65 in 2050, as compared to the 9% mark in 2019. In Europe and the U.S., the figure could be as high as 25%. Those above the age of 80 is expected to show a 200% growth by 2050. Old age may bring along several issues such as ailing bone health, arthritis, loss of vision, and respiratory illness, amongst others. All these can lead to the loss of driving ability. The geriatric population, therefore, may depend on NEMT services for regular health check-ups, dialysis, rehabilitation visits, etc.
Insurance companies in the U.S. are also providing a NEMT opt-in facility. The financial burden on the patients drastically decreases in this facility. Medicaid holders in the U.S. are eligible for to and fro non-emergency medical transportation reimbursements. High comfort vehicles are available for patient’s transport. Normal vehicles may not be suited for patient transport, as they may have facilities such as wheelchairs, dialysis kits, recliners, etc. Subscription offers provided by the NEMT service providers may lead to increased adoption of these services, which will further aid in the growth of the global non-emergency medical transportation market.
