Common questions
How fast can you reach UVA Health Prince William?
It is the destination we can reach fastest. A number of our drivers start the day within fifteen minutes of it, so same-day requests in Manassas usually mean a shorter wait.
Do you take patients from UVA Health Prince William to nursing or rehab facilities?
Yes, constantly. Local destinations include Manassas Health and Rehab, Birmingham Green, Annaburg Manor, Lake Manassas Health and Rehabilitation, and Gainesville Health and Rehab.
Can you pick up from the outpatient or medical office buildings at UVA Health Prince William?
Yes. The campus has outpatient and medical office buildings alongside the main hospital. Tell us the building and department at booking.
Do you also run to UVA Health Haymarket?
Yes, we’re there daily. For riders on the western side of the county, Haymarket is often the shorter run.
What if the appointment runs long or I don’t know my return time?
Book the return as a will-call. If you can, call dispatch a little before your appointment wraps up, and we’ll start a driver your way so you wait as little as possible. If you can’t call until you’re finished, that’s fine: we’ll route the closest available driver, and our standard is to pick you up within 45 minutes of your call. The earlier you call, the shorter your wait. If you’d rather have the driver wait on site, prescheduled wait time is $75 an hour for wheelchair trips and $100 an hour for stretcher trips.
Do you transport patients on isolation precautions, such as C. diff, MRSA or COVID?
Yes, with notice. Tell us about any isolation precautions when you book. The crew wears the protective equipment the precautions call for, and the vehicle is disinfected after the trip. An additional charge applies, and dispatch will quote it when you book.
How do I ask for H&M Transport through Virginia Medicaid?
Call the transportation number on your Medicaid ID card; the brokers we work with are MTM Health and SafeRide Health. Request H&M Transport specifically when you book your ride. Covered rides to medical appointments cost the member nothing.
