Description

The Healthcare Consortium's Children and Adults Rural Transportation Service (CARTS) provides door-to-door non-emergency medical transportation to Columbia County residents of every age, income and ability. Using our own fleet of clean and well-maintained vehicles driven by friendly and compassionate employed drivers, we transport residents to and from healthcare providers and facilities both within Columbia County and well-beyond.

Providing organization

THE HEALTHCARE CONSORTIUM

The mission of the Healthcare Consortium is to increase access to healthcare and support the health and well-being of the residents in Columbia and Greene Counties. We address the barriers--whether they be physical, financial, or practical--that people confront when trying to get and stay healthy. Services provided include: non-emergency medical transportation through our Children and Adults Rural Transportation Service (CARTS); health insurance enrollment services through our Navigator Program; information, referral and assistance for individuals in need of long-term services and supports through our NYConnects program; access to no or low-cost prescription medications; financial assistance for those who are experiencing hardship due to illness or injury; and what we call "way-finding," helping people to find their way through the healthcare maze.
