How much does medicare pay for transportation to ins companies?
Nothing, Medicare does not provide and does not cover transportation to get routine health care and never covers transportation of any type to an INS company for any reason.. Medicare will pay for limited ambulance services. If you go to a hospital or skilled nursing facility (SNF), ambulance services are covered only if transportation in any other vehicle could endanger your health. Generally, transportation from a hospital or SNF is not covered. If the care you need is not available locally, Medicare helps pay for necessary ambulance transportation to the closest facility outside your local area that can provide the care you need. If you choose to go to another facility farther away, Medicare payment is based on how much it would cost to go to the closest facility.
