NEMTAC ACCREDITATION

NATIONAL ACCREDITATION PROGRAM

NEMTAC offers the only national accreditation program designed to enhance and promote the quality of care in America’s medical transportation system. Obtaining accreditation distinguishes an organization and signifies to its customer and stakeholders that they have met the NEMT industry standards of excellence.

 

NEMTAC’s comprehensive accreditation process often exceeds those established by state or local regulators and are designed to increase utilization, serve as a market differentiator and decrease liability.

​

The NEMTAC accreditation journey begins with reviewing the NEMTAC Accreditation Standards Self-Assessment Tool. This will help organizations prepare and determine if they are ready to begin the accreditation process. NEMTAC will be accrediting organizations on a first come, first serve basis. A maximum of five (5) organizations will be accredited per month and  the Board of Directors will monitor this number on a regular basis.
