Published Medicaid fee-for-service schedule amounts, not a coverage or eligibility guarantee. Managed-care plan rates can differ. Where no prior-authorization flag is shown, the state does not publish one. "--" in the PA column means the state publishes no prior-authorization flags on this schedule.

Frequently asked questions

Which states pay the most for Medicaid transport services?

Most transport codes lack a direct national Medicare comparator, so this category is compared by published code counts and per-code rates rather than a Medicare percentage. Pick a state in the table for its schedule.

What do these Medicaid transport fee schedules cover?

Published fee-for-service rates for medical transportation: ambulance services, mileage, and non-emergency medical transport. Each state page lists common procedures with plain-language descriptions and the state's published rate; the complete all-codes schedules are available with a ProviderSignal Rates subscription.

How current are these rates?

Rates come from each state's currently published Medicaid fee schedule and are re-collected on a rolling schedule; pages update automatically after each collection. Most states' schedules on this page are effective 2026.
