Kentucky has made some changes to expand access to free transportation for people who need help getting to medical, dental and mental health appointments, picking up prescriptions and more.
Medicaid's nonemergency medical transportation benefit will now include individuals who own a working vehicle but cannot drive due to a medical condition.
Emily Beauregard, executive director of Kentucky Voices for Health, noted it also applies when using the vehicle conflicts with another household member's need to drive to work, school or their own health care appointment.
