Non-Emergency Medical Transportation Buyer's Guide: Vehicle Specifications and Configurations

Choosing the right NEMT vehicle affects compliance, reliability, passenger safety, and long-term operating costs. This guide is designed for fleet managers, transportation operators, and business owners comparing accessible commercial vehicles for non-emergency medical transportation.

Whether you're expanding your fleet or purchasing your first accessible vehicle, the NEMT Buyer's Guide details five BraunAbility NEMT configurations side by side: rear-entry, side-entry, hybrid, and full-size. Each includes ramp specifications, passenger and wheelchair capacity, seating flexibility, compliance certifications, and durability testing results.

Every configuration is ADA, FMVSS, and CARB compliant and meets or exceeds Altoona test requirements.

What Types of Vehicles Are Used for Non-Emergency Medical Transportation?

NEMT fleets typically run one of four configurations: rear-entry minivan, side-entry minivan, hybrid, or full-size van. The Buyer's Guide covers five BraunAbility builds across those categories, ranging from two wheelchair positions to eight ambulatory passengers. Each handles a different mix of accessibility, capacity, and route type - rear-entry avoids side-clearance issues in tight parking, while full-size supports higher-capacity operations.

What Should You Compare When Evaluating NEMT Vehicles?

The specifications that vary most across configurations are ramp width (30" to 34"), ramp angle (10° to 12.8°), wheelchair and ambulatory capacity, ground clearance at maximum load, and seating flexibility. Compliance certifications and securement systems also differ by build. The Buyer's Guide presents these side by side across all five configurations.

Which Certifications Matter for NEMT Fleet Purchases?

Every BraunAbility NEMT configuration is ADA, FMVSS, CMVSS, and CARB compliant and meets or exceeds Altoona test requirements. The Buyer's Guide lists certifications for each configuration.
