My loved one lives in a nursing facility. She is able to sit in a wheelchair safely. If it is an appointment that she does NOT need to transfer to a table, she can go by ambulette in her wheelchair no problem. However if it is an apt that she will need to transfer to a table for examination she would need to go by gurney. How else would she be able to get on the table? Will Medicare/Medicaid cover this? The transportation company states it is a problem with insurance to switch transportation methods from w/c to gurney.
If the doctor wants a patient on the table, that's his or her problem, not mine.
As Unmarried suggests, check out public transportation. They have services with drivers trained to use wheelchair lifts. I don't think they would continue the ride by taking your parent into the doctor's office, but my experience is that nurses get together and help someone transfer from a wheelchair to the doctor's exam table.
Search in your area for paratransit, direct bus service, point to point service, dial-a-ride or small bus services. These are all descriptions of the kind of service you need. Different public transit companies have different designations for this service.
