Formerly LogistiCare
ModivCare is the largest Medicaid NEMT broker in the US. They manage over 70 million trips per year across 48 states and DC. Most new operators start here because of the trip volume available in almost every market.

Contract tips
- List ModivCare as additional insured on your ACORD 25 before you submit your application. Missing this single step causes most first-time rejections.
- You need a Type 2 Organization NPI on the application form. A Type 1 Individual NPI will not work.
- ModivCare sets rates by state rate schedule. You cannot negotiate base rates. Focus on getting all eligible add-on fees approved instead.
- Your driver files must be complete before you submit. Each driver needs a license copy, background check, drug test, and CPR card. Incomplete driver files restart the review.
- After approval, keep your on-time rate above 95% monthly. ModivCare suspends providers who fall below this threshold without warning.
Veyo
Veyo is an MTM subsidiary that uses a technology-first dispatch model. They operate in 9 states and are known for the fastest credentialing and weekly payment — making them a strong option for new operators who need cash flow.

Contract tips
- Veyo has the fastest credentialing of any major broker. You can be approved and taking trips in as little as 2 weeks if your documents are complete.
- Veyo pays weekly via EFT. This is the best payment speed among all national brokers and helps new operators cover fuel and driver costs without waiting.
- Veyo requires a 4.7 or higher star rating and 98%+ on-time performance. The performance bar is higher than ModivCare or MTM.
- Veyo's dispatch system auto-assigns trips based on proximity and rating. Drivers with higher ratings receive more trips without any manual negotiation.
- Veyo is now owned by MTM. If you apply to MTM in a Veyo state, ask which platform will be used in your specific county.
How to Apply to NEMT Brokers in Utah
Submit your applications to all 2 brokers active in Utah at the same time. Each credentialing process is independent. Waiting for one approval before starting the next adds weeks to your timeline with no benefit.
Before you apply to any broker in Utah, have these documents ready: your Type 2 Organization NPI, LLC formation documents, ACORD 25 certificate of insurance with the broker listed as additional insured, vehicle registration and inspection records, and a complete driver file for every driver on your roster. Missing any of these restarts the review from the beginning.
After approval, your on-time performance rate determines how many trips you receive. Most brokers in Utah require 95% or higher monthly. Veyo requires 98%. Track your performance weekly and address any pattern of late arrivals before it triggers a trip reduction.
Broker Rates in Utah
Broker rates in Utah are set by the state Medicaid rate schedule, not by the broker. You cannot negotiate the base trip rate. You can request add-on fees for services like stair assist, oxygen transport, escort trips, and after-hours pickups. Get the current rate sheet for Utah from each broker's credentialing team before you sign anything.
To increase your margin in Utah, add private pay clients alongside broker trips. Dialysis centers, skilled nursing facilities, and hospitals in Utah typically pay 40 to 70 percent more per trip than broker rates. Use the Broker vs. Private Pay Comparison tool to calculate exactly how much your margin improves as you shift your trip mix.
