Want to Reduce NEMT Fraud? Start With the Ride.

Fraud, waste and abuse remains a significant challenge in non-emergency medical transportation. MTM alone reports investigating more than 23,000 potential FWA cases in 2025, with roughly one-third of its valid cases involving transportation providers.

That's significant—and it raises an important question:


If we can measure the claim, why aren't we doing more to measure the ride?


At 360 Quality Care + Transport Services, we believe accountability should begin before a claim is ever submitted.


Our GPS verifies where a vehicle is going and where it hasw traveled. Electronic dispatch records document the trip. In-vehicle cameras provide another objective record when questions arise about safety, patient interactions, complaints or driver performance.

Together, they create verifiable accountability.


Not every NEMT provider operates with this level of visibility. Yet if health plans and brokers are serious about reducing FWA, shouldn't the conversation include stronger standards for the transportation providers actually delivering the care?


There isn't enough research yet to claim cameras alone reduce NEMT fraud by a specific percentage. But the principle is straightforward: the more independently verifiable information we have about a trip, the less we have to rely solely on what someone says happened.


At 360, cameras, GPS, accreditation, training and performance measurement are all part of the same philosophy:


Don't just measure the claim. Measure the ride.


That's how healthcare mobility moves toward greater transparency, accountability and trust.
