Frequently Asked Questions

Does DayLight Med Transportation take Medi-Cal?

Yes, we coordinate Medi-Cal managed care rides, often through broker networks such as American Logistics for Molina Medi-Cal, Modivcare, and MTM. Whether a specific trip is covered depends on your plan and the ride type, so our dispatch team verifies coverage for your plan and trip before we book it. Call (619) 999-9669 to confirm.

Dispatch confirms coverage for your plan before booking.

How do you confirm my ride is covered before I book?

Our dispatch team verifies coverage for your specific plan and trip before booking, since coverage depends on the plan, the level of service, and the reason for travel. We check your eligibility and any broker authorization first, then confirm the details with you. Call (619) 999-9669 or start online with our booking wizard.

Can I pay privately if my plan does not cover the trip?

Yes, private pay is available. We use transparent flat-base-plus-mileage pricing, quoted before the ride. This is a good option when a plan does not cover a specific trip or when you prefer to arrange transport directly. Contact dispatch at (619) 999-9669 for a quote and to book.

Do you handle Medicare Advantage and VA veterans rides?

Yes, we coordinate Medicare Advantage benefits and VA Community Care for veterans, along with adult day health and PACE program transport. Because coverage and prior authorization rules vary by plan and trip, our dispatch team verifies your eligibility for the specific ride before booking. Call (619) 999-9669 or use the online booking wizard to get started.
