Volunteer Transportation System
Hope Network’s Volunteer Transportation System (VTS) was founded in 1997 to address the unmet transportation needs of Medicaid and disadvantaged residents in rural areas.
VTS has over 130 active volunteers living in both Michigan and Ohio. These volunteers drive over 1.3 million miles annually, serving over 3,000 people who would otherwise have no access to medical care.
Are you eligible for services?

If you are inquiring about services, please contact your insurance provider; your request for services must specify, “Non-Emergency Medical Transportation.” (NEMT)
