Transportation affects many aspects of an individual’s health and well-being – from accessing healthcare services and healthy food options to maintaining social connections. Lack of transportation is the leading cause of patient no-shows for medical appointments, and missed appointments are associated with increased medical care costs for the patient, disruption of patient care and provider-patient relationships, delayed care and increased emergency room visits.Refer to the general transportation resources listed below or place a referral to WKCC care management for help, including the possible option of Ride Health as a temporary solution.
