Medical Transportation in Georgia: What You Need to Know
Atlanta's Emory and Piedmont systems serve patients from across the Southeast — Crown Care coordinates both city and long-distance medical transport in Georgia.
Non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) exists for one reason: getting patients to and from medical care when they cannot drive themselves and an ambulance is not needed. In Georgia that might be a weekly dialysis session, a scheduled chemotherapy infusion, a hospital discharge home, a follow-up at a specialty center, or a long drive to a hospital in another state. Insurance-funded NEMT usually runs through a broker, which means advance-notice rules, shared vans and little control over which vehicle shows up.
Crown Care NEMT is 100% private pay. We do not bill insurance or Medicaid, and there is no broker between you and the dispatcher. That is what lets us match the vehicle to the patient, keep pickups on time, and confirm most Georgia rides within 2 hours of the request.

Georgia Medical Transportation Guide
Georgia's healthcare system is anchored by Atlanta, home to Emory University Hospital, Piedmont Healthcare, Grady Memorial Hospital, and the CDC. Augusta adds the Medical College of Georgia and Charlie Norwood VA Medical Center. Together, these institutions serve patients from across the Southeast.
But Georgia's rural communities face significant healthcare access challenges. A patient in Valdosta or Albany needing specialty care at Emory may face a 4-hour drive. Crown Care NEMT provides the reliable transportation infrastructure that connects these patients to the care they need.
Atlanta Metro
Atlanta is the medical hub of the Southeast. Key hospitals include:
- Emory University Hospital and Emory Saint Joseph's
- Piedmont Atlanta Hospital
- Grady Memorial Hospital
- Northside Hospital
- Children's Healthcare of Atlanta
- WellStar Health System
Crown Care provides local medical rides throughout metro Atlanta, including wheelchair and stretcher transport. Atlanta's traffic makes on-time arrivals a challenge, our drivers plan routes carefully and build in buffer time.
Augusta
Augusta University Medical Center (formerly MCG Health) is a regional referral center serving eastern Georgia and western South Carolina. The Charlie Norwood VA Medical Center serves veterans across the region.
Savannah
Memorial Health University Medical Center and St. Joseph's/Candler serve coastal Georgia. Patients needing higher-level care often travel to Atlanta or Jacksonville, FL.
Macon and Columbus
Atrium Health Navicent in Macon and Piedmont Columbus Regional serve central and western Georgia. Both cities generate significant NEMT demand for patients traveling to Atlanta specialists.
