How Ryde Central Works for Hospitals

Whether you have a patient requiring a transport to the hospital, discharging from a hospital, or transferring from one facility to another, Ryde Central simplifies the whole process.

What’s automated:

  • PCS or medical necessity forms are automatically generated.

  • Ryde Central automatically determines level of transport needed and prevents you from requesting higher and more expensive levels of transportation unnecessarily.

  • Transport request is broadcasted to your network of providers via email, SMS text, or both.

  • Details of the transport request will appear on your provider’s Ryde Central portal.

After logging in to Ryde Central, your tier-1 transport providers can accept, reject, or offer a different time for your transport request, based on a first-come, first-serve basis.

When accepting your transport request, transport providers will enter their promised pickup time. If no one accepts your transport request, the request will be broadcasted to your tier-2 transport providers.

What’s automated:

  • If your request was accepted, the new booking will reflect onto your Ryde Central account and to the provider’s CAD.

  • If no one accepts the request, then the request will go to the next tier of providers, as determined by preset policies.

  • Transport scheduling counter-offers will be automatically accepted or rejected based on your preset policies.

  • You will receive real-time notifications on the status of your transport request.

Real-time status of the ride will be visible in you and your NEMT provider’s Ryde Central portal. You can choose to receive real-time SMS text and email status updates, such as when the vehicle is enroute, at pickup, and at final destination.

Data for each transport is logged for you to generate performance and custom reports, such as overall trip completion rate by your primary providers, on-time performance by vendor, average lateness, and more.
