All rates are examples. Medicaid and broker trips pay the broker's rate, so use this for trips where you set the price. Estimates for planning only. Your contracts, routes and receipts decide the real number.

FAQ

Should I quote per mile or flat?

Per mile protects you on long trips. Flat is easier to sell to facilities. Compare a flat rate you're considering with the "Bills" column: past the distance where your rate card bills more than the flat rate, the flat rate is costing you money.

Can I use this for Medicaid trips?

No. Broker trips pay the broker's rate. Use this for trips where you set the price.

How do I charge for waiting?

Most rate cards give 15 free minutes, then bill wait time by the hour. Set both in the advanced section.
