How to Schedule a Ride
Content

Before you schedule a ride check to see if friends or family can give you a ride. Also check to see if you and your provider are located on bus lines. If so, take public transit.
If neither of those options are possible, please do the following:

  • Call 1-877-312-6571 - Monday - Friday 8:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. (except holidays and State Service Reduction days)
  • 24 hours before your appointment time call 1-877-312-6571 (You may schedule a week in advance)
  • Date and Time of appointment
  • Name, address and telephone number of provider
  • Specific reason for your visit.
