"If you're looking for a thorough and practical guide to starting and operating a non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) business, you've found the right book. The author covers every aspect of setting up a NEMT business and offers helpful hints and information for best practices in every step and facet of your journey. He even includes a short history of NEMT services and, in general, provides detailed advice throughout. In fact, I found useful information on every page (something I definitely can't say about many of the how-to and business-related books I've read over the years)." - T. Koehler
