Frequently asked questions
Practical answers before you travel
Discuss your situation?Call 085 800 9995
Is wheelchair transport the same as an ambulance?
No. This is pre-booked non-emergency transport without medical monitoring. Emergency or medically supervised transport requires the appropriate healthcare service.
Can you collect someone from a hospital ward?
Collection arrangements vary by hospital. Provide the ward, entrance and a reachable contact, and make sure the traveller is formally ready for discharge.
How is the fare calculated?
Route, driving time, wheelchair and vehicle, passengers, luggage, access, waiting and stops are considered. A fixed quote is confirmed before booking.
Can a carer travel with the passenger?
Usually, if reserved in advance and sufficient seating is available. State every passenger when requesting the transport.
Do you provide long-distance transport?
Long-distance journeys across the Netherlands can be requested. Share the complete itinerary early so vehicle and schedule can be assessed.
Can transport be paid by an insurer?
Coverage depends on personal policy and prior authorisation. Check directly with the insurer before assuming reimbursement.
