Unique platform for NEMT services

Understanding our Client: Why Us?

Our client is a well-established US-based company that has been providing medical taxi services for many years. They decided to take their business to the next level by creating a unique and highly automated platform that would bring together other transport providers in their segment. We were thrilled to work with a client who was determined to innovate and differentiate themselves from the giants in their industry.

This is a testament to their commitment to providing exceptional service and creating value for their customers.

What problems needed to be solved?

Our client approached us with a set of business problems that they wanted to solve. Firstly, they needed to create a platform for non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT), commonly known as medical taxi services.

Secondly, they wanted to simplify and automate the process of booking a vehicle for their clients. This would enable them to provide a better customer experience while reducing manual work for their employees.

Thirdly, they needed to simplify and automate the work of the transport provider to ensure seamless delivery of their services. Lastly, they wanted to generate reports that would help them track the platform's performance and make data-driven decisions for their business. We were excited to collaborate with our client and help them solve these business problems through our cutting-edge solutions.

What obstacles did we encounter?

However, several obstacles needed to be overcome. Firstly, a common platform for transport providers was lacking, which made it challenging to bring them all under one roof. Secondly, the specificity of medical taxi services presented a significant challenge. The platform needed to communicate with doctors, and the data exchanged had to adhere to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) that safeguards patient data. Furthermore, there were several unique features of the vehicles that transported patients that needed to be taken into account, among dozens of other nuances that had to be factored in. Nevertheless, we had confidence in our ability to help the company surmount these obstacles and create a platform that met all their needs while complying with industry standards and regulations.

What should the ideal solution look like?

The ideal solution should be a highly-customizable platform that allows clients to order medical taxi services with ease. It should provide options for clients to choose their preferred type of vehicle, medication requirements, and special instructions. Additionally, the platform should simplify and automate the process of booking a vehicle, taking into account the specific requirements of medical taxi services. This includes compliance with HIPAA regulations and consideration of the unique features of the vehicles used to transport patients. Finally, the platform should generate reports that help the client track the platform's performance and make informed business decisions.

What technologies have we chosen and why?

For the backend, we used PHP and Laravel, while the frontend was developed with SPA technology. These choices were made because they are currently popular technologies. SPA allows users to work with the system as if it were a full-fledged application launched in the browser, enabling data updates on the page without reloading. We integrated third-party services such as Google Maps, which provides fast and accurate maps for clients and determines their locations. We also incorporated the Stripe payment system, which simplified payment procedures for customers, enabled transactions between carriers and administrators, and made payment distribution easy.
