Need a ride to your dental appointment? Medi-
Cal can help!
Non-Medical Transportation (NMT)
You can use NMT for
▪ Dental or medical appointments covered by Medi-Cal
▪ Picking up prescriptions, medical supplies, or equipment.
Ask for a ride 5-10 days before your appointment. If you have many future
appointments, your medical or dental provider can arrange transportation in advance
for you.
