Why Patients in Rochester Choose Private Pay NEMT

Rochester, Minnesota exists because of Mayo Clinic. The entire city of roughly 125,000 residents has built its infrastructure around serving the more than one million patients who visit Mayo Clinic each year for everything from second opinions to organ transplants to rare-disease consultations. Patients fly into Rochester International Airport from every corner of the country, stay in hotels and patient housing along 2nd Street SW, and shuttle between the Gonda Building, the Mayo Clinic Hospital at Saint Marys, and dozens of satellite clinics spread across the city.

For many of these patients, traditional transportation simply does not work. They may be in a wheelchair after a procedure, recovering from surgery and unable to sit upright in a standard vehicle, or traveling with medical equipment that requires a specially configured van. Ride-hailing apps cannot accommodate these needs. And patients who are not Minnesota residents often have no Medicaid NEMT coverage in the state at all.

Crown Care bridges this gap with private pay medical transportation designed specifically for the Mayo Clinic patient experience. We transport patients from the airport to their first appointment, between the downtown campus and Saint Marys Hospital, from patient housing to imaging centers, and — when treatment is complete — back home, whether home is Minneapolis, Chicago, or across the country. Every ride is coordinated by a real person who understands the Mayo Clinic campus layout and the unique needs of traveling patients.

For Rochester residents with recurring local appointments — dialysis at Mayo, weekly physical therapy, or ongoing oncology treatment — we set up standing schedules so the same driver arrives at the same time each week. No rebooking, no hold times, no uncertainty. Crown Care becomes a seamless part of the patient's care routine in Rochester.
