NEMT Insurance for operators who actually get covered.

Non-emergency medical transportation is one of the harder risks to place — especially as a new venture. Most standard carriers won't touch it. We have specialty markets that write NEMT, understand the exposure, and won't leave you stranded at renewal time.

Why NEMT is tough to place — and why that matters for you

Most commercial auto carriers won't write non-emergency medical transportation. The exposure profile is unique: you're transporting medically vulnerable passengers — wheelchair users, dialysis patients, post-surgical clients — in vehicles that see high daily mileage. Add in new-venture status (no loss history) and many standard markets simply decline the risk outright.

We work with specialty markets that understand NEMT. They know the regulatory landscape, accept new operations, and build policies around the way NEMT businesses actually run — not a one-size-fits-all commercial auto form that leaves gaps everywhere.

Essential Coverages

The coverages every NEMT operator needs.

We build your policy around the actual exposures of transporting passengers for hire — not just a generic business owner's policy that misses the biggest risks.

Commercial Auto — For-Hire / Livery

This is the heart of your NEMT policy. Standard commercial auto won't cover you if you're transporting passengers for compensation. You need a livery or for-hire auto form that covers bodily injury, property damage, and medical payments for the passengers in your vehicle.

Most Critical Coverage

General Liability

Covers third-party bodily injury and property damage that isn't tied directly to vehicle operation — loading and unloading accidents, trips and falls at the client's door, premises liability for your dispatch office. GL is the foundation every NEMT operator needs alongside auto.

Core Coverage

Workers' Compensation

Required in most states the moment you hire a driver. NEMT drivers and aides handle physically demanding work — assisting patients in and out of vehicles, operating lifts, managing wheelchairs. Workers' comp protects your staff and your business if someone gets hurt on the job.

Professional Liability (E&O)

If a patient claims they missed a critical appointment due to a scheduling error, late pickup, or a dispatch mistake, a standard GL policy won't cover that. Professional liability steps in for claims tied to the service itself — the coordination and execution of transportation services.

Who We Work With

New venture or established — we can place it.

Whether you're buying your first van or running a fleet of 30, we have markets and experience for every stage of an NEMT operation.

New ventures with no loss history

Most carriers won't write a first-year NEMT operation. We work with specialty markets that will — and we know how to present your risk to get you bound.

Single-vehicle owner-operators

Starting with one van and a Medicaid contract? We get you the coverage you need to comply with state and MCO requirements from day one.

Small fleets (2–20 vehicles)

Fleet policies require a different structure. We build it right so every vehicle, every driver, and every shift is properly covered under a single program.

Wheelchair and stretcher transport

WC and stretcher trips carry additional passenger liability exposure. We make sure your auto form specifically addresses the type of transport you're performing.

The Conexion Difference

We go to bat for you —
especially on the hard placements.

Being tough to place doesn't mean being left on your own. We work harder for the risks that require it.

Specialty market access

We maintain relationships with carriers and managing general agents that specialize in for-hire transportation — markets that standard agents don't have access to and that understand NEMT at a detail level.

Compliance documentation

Medicaid contracts and MCO agreements require specific coverage limits and endorsements. We know what the brokers and managed care organizations need and make sure your certificates are issued correctly the first time.

Claims advocacy when it counts

NEMT claims can be complex — passenger injuries, subrogation issues, multiple policies involved. When something happens, we're on the phone with the adjuster alongside you. We don't disappear after the bind.

Renewal planning as you grow

A new venture that survives year one starts building loss history and credibility. We work with you at every renewal to improve your carrier options, negotiate better terms, and make sure your coverage grows with your fleet.
