Rides 

 

Do you need to travel 30 miles or more from home to see a provider? If so, your MCO can help you get rides to and from the provider’s office. These trips need to be for a medically necessary appointment. Contact your MCO for more information.

 

Non-emergency transportation (NET)

 

You may also be able to get rides to other resources and services. To learn more about NET services, just contact your county at the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS).
