For transport providers
You drive. We manage everything around the trip.
Non-emergency medical transportation, built for the DC, Maryland, and Virginia region. You bring vehicles and drivers. We handle scheduling, credentialing, standards, and billing.
Find the authority path for your operating area
Start with a state and locality, then tell us how the trips will be paid. The result separates public authority guidance from Nexo’s own onboarding.

This is public guidance, not legal advice, an operating-authority decision, or a promise that Nexo has trips in this locality. The applicable authority makes the final determination. Nexo confirms provider availability and service-level eligibility during onboarding.
How working with Nexo goes
- 01Stage 01
Apply
Send us your company, your vehicles, and your drivers. We check credentials and insurance against the standard before anyone talks about trips.
- 02Stage 02
Inspect
We look at each vehicle against the published form. You can read that form, and run the self-check yourself, before we ever arrive.
- 03Stage 03
Run
Approved vehicles and drivers become eligible for trips. Standards keep applying after you are in, and re-inspection is part of the arrangement.
You never guess. We tell you exactly what is missing.
The 3 service levels
Three standard levels, plus one add-on that layers on top of them.
- Level 01
Ambulatory
The member walks to and from the vehicle, with a steadying arm if they want one.
- Level 02
Wheelchair
The member stays in their chair. Lift or ramp, four securement points, every trip.
- Level 03
Stretcher
The member travels lying down, with the crew and equipment that requires.
Add-on, not a fourth level
Bariatric and two-person assist
An add-on that layers on top of the three levels above, not a fourth level. Two or more trained attendants when a member’s needs require it.
Real trips vary at the door. The level is what we plan and price against; what the member actually needs on the day is what your crew responds to.
Vehicle standards, made public
A requirement you cannot realistically meet manufactures violations rather than safety, so every line in our standard has to earn its place. Three examples of what that produces:
- Published standard
Two mounted, tagged extinguishers
Mounted, not loose in the back, and tagged so the date is checkable at a glance. A loose extinguisher is a projectile, and an untagged one is an unknown.
- Published standard
A worn photo badge, not a dashboard card
Drivers wear company photo identification and present it on request. A printed card naming a driver is stale the moment drivers rotate, so it proves who used to be here.
- Published standard
Permanent vinyl decals, not paper signs
Cabin rule signs are purchased decals, inspected for presence, wording, and condition. Paper falls down, gets wet, and gets replaced with whatever is to hand.
The full standard is public. The inspection form is public. The buying guide is public. Nothing about passing is a secret.
Prepare before you apply
Three documents answer the first questions: how onboarding works, what the vehicle standard requires, and what to confirm about insurance.
