How New York NEMT Providers Can Simplify MAS Compliance Changes

In early 2024, Medical Answering Services (MAS) became the official NEMT broker for New York State, bringing new opportunities for providers and introducing critical changes to their attestation process.

MAS now requires that all NEMT providers submit GPS data during the attestation process to get paid. While this change aims to improve accountability and transparency in the NEMT industry, it creates significant challenges for providers not equipped to meet these stringent requirements.

This article covers the pressure these regulations place on providers and how Tobi NEMT software is stepping in to help you with MAS compliance, maintain operations, and avoid financial losses.

The Challenge for New York NEMT Providers

MAS’s updated attestation compliance process has caught many providers off guard.

Without reliable systems in place to capture and submit GPS data, some providers are facing:

  • Missed payments: Providers risk having their claims denied if they can’t submit GPS-backed proof that trips occurred as reported.

  • Operational disruptions: Time spent manually addressing MAS requirements eats into operational efficiency.

  • Potential fines: Non-compliance could result in significant penalties, further straining business finances.

The consequences are clear: if you don’t adhere to the new MAS compliance requirements, you won’t get paid for completed rides.
