ACO & Value-Based Care
Dedicated transportation can help ACOs and community providers support patients in preventive care, follow-up visits, recurring treatment, and other approved services in the local service area.
Patient Transportation for Community Health Clinics
Help Patients Stay Connected to Local Care
Community health clinics often serve patients who depend on reliable access to primary care, preventive services, follow-up appointments, and other non-emergency healthcare. HPH builds dedicated transportation programs around clinic schedules, patient demand, recurring care needs, local service areas, and day-to-day clinic operations.
The HPH Community Health Clinic Solution
For community-based clinics, transportation needs can change throughout the day as appointment schedules, patient demand, and recurring care needs shift. HPH creates a defined transportation program around the clinic rather than requiring staff to coordinate each patient ride separately.
-
-
Preventive Care Rides
Transportation can support approved preventive care visits, screenings, wellness appointments, and other scheduled healthcare services.
-
Recurring Scheduling
Recurring transportation can be scheduled around standing clinic schedules for treatment, including IOP, PHP, dialysis, recurring behavioral health, rehabilitation, and other approved recurring outpatient care.
-
Follow-up & Continuing Care
Programs can support follow-up visits, screenings, and other approved care that depends on consistent access.
-
Clinic-Day Coordination
Transportation schedules stay aligned with clinic hours, appointment patterns, and daily clinic operations.
-
Familiar Transportation
Patients develop more consistent relationships with drivers. Drivers learn clinic entrances, pickup procedures, and workflows.
Benefits for Community Health Clinics
-
Improve Access to Scheduled Care
A defined transportation program can help patients reach healthcare services when transportation would otherwise make access more difficult.
-
Support Preventive & Follow-Up Care
Reliable transportation helps patients stay connected to screenings, preventive services, follow-up visits, and continuing care.

Improve Consistency for Recurring Patients
Patients in IOP, PHP, or rehab may need transport weekly. Dedicated drivers and set schedules ensure consistent access to care.

Reduce Transportation Work for Clinic Teams
HPH manages drivers, schedules, communication, and day-to-day transportation changes so clinic staff spend less time arranging individual rides.

Respond to Changing Clinic Demand
Transportation resources can be adjusted around changes in appointment volume, operating hours, recurring care needs, routes, and patient demand.
