MV Transportation to Provide Palm Tran CONNECTION’s Medicaid Transportation

For Immediate Release: 6-28-2007
Contact: Jessica L. Dumars, 561-841-4245 Senior Public Relations Specialist

Effective July 1, 2007, the Medicaid non-emergency transportation currently provided by Palm Tran CONNECTION will be provided by MV Transportation. The state awarded the contract to provide Medicaid transportation in Palm Beach County to MV Transportation, after the Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners voted to discontinue Palm Tran CONNECTION’s operation of Medicaid service.

Palm Tran is working with MV Transportation to ensure this transition is as seamless as possible. All trips for Medicaid participants will be scheduled and provided by MV Transportation. Medicaid customers who have been using Palm Tran CONNECTION can contact MV Transportation toll-free at 1-866-207-7214 for questions about the Medicaid program or to book a trip.

Palm Tran CONNECTION will continue to provide transportation for individuals qualified under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) program, the Transportation Disadvantaged (TD) program, the Division of Senior Services (DOSS) program, and the County Senior Transportation Services (CSTS) program.
