Medicaid does cover the transportation for dialysis patients to get to and from dialysis treatment centers.

You can ask the dialysis treatment center staff for how to get signed up for dialysis treatment transportation through Medicaid and they can help get you the transportation started.

If you have both Medicaid and Medicare then you most certainly will be eligible for Medicaid covered dialysis transportation to and from the dialysis treatment center.

You still might be eligible for the Medicaid dialysis treatment transportation even when you just have medicaid.

Other health insurance may also cover the dialysis treatment transportation as well.

You can also sign up and have a family member reimbursed for gas for taking you to and from the dialysis treatment center as well.

I take my neighbor to dialysis 3 times per week and even though I'm not a relation they reimburse my gas money through a Comdata card.

So you might check into that as well.
