Lyft launched a program that will let health care organizations send patients prepaid passes that they can use for rides to doctor’s appointments.
“We’ve automated an important piece of health access that allows patients to be self-sufficient and in control, while allowing our partners to focus on the services they provide, rather than on administrative processes,” said Megan Callahan, vice president of Lyft Healthcare, in a statement.
The program, called Lyft Pass for Healthcare, lets health care organizations or social services agencies create a budget and set approved pickup and drop-off locations. They can share the pass with patients, who can apply it to their ride.

Ridesharing app Lyft is furthering its foothold in the medical transportation space with the launch of Lyft Pass for Healthcare, a tool that lets patients plan their own rides to providers.
The new program lets partnering health plan members, including those enrolled in select Medicaid and Medicare programs, as well as patients from client health organizations, request a ride to their medical appointment through the Lyft app. Previously health organizations or insurers requested the ride for patients.
The organization partnering and paying Lyft will be able to: set the budget for the program, put a cap on cost per ride, approve pick-up and drop-off locations, and set the times when passes could be used.
