NEMT Back Office
Medicaid Transportation Subcontractor Support
Running trips under a primary contractor is a paperwork business as much as a driving business. We handle the trip intake, the compliance files, and the billing follow-through — so your prime sees a subcontractor worth sending more volume.
Quick Answer
Medicaid transportation subcontractor support is back-office service for NEMT providers who run trips under a primary contractor or broker — handling trip intake from the prime, driver and vehicle compliance files, credentialing packets, trip logs and signatures, and billing and reconciliation with the prime. It's for subcontractors, and providers planning to become one, who want to stay audit-ready and get paid for every trip without hiring a full in-house office. SS Support Network keeps files current with expiration tracking, submits claims in the prime's format, and chases underpaid or unbilled trips, working daily inside broker portals like Modivcare, MTM, and Access2Care. This is administrative support, not legal or licensing advice — contract terms and program rules stay with the provider's attorney and prime contractor. The buyer outcome is a clean back office that makes a subcontractor easy to keep and worth sending more volume to.
What we handle
What paperwork does an NEMT subcontractor deal with?
Primes don't drop subcontractors for one late trip. They drop them for lapsed insurance certificates, unreturned calls, and billing disputes that take three weeks to untangle. All of that is preventable — with someone whose job is preventing it.
- Trip intake from your prime — assignments accepted, entered, and confirmed the day they arrive
- Trip changes & cancellations — portal updates and reroutes caught and worked, not discovered
- Driver file upkeep — licenses, clearances, and training records current, with expirations tracked
- Vehicle documentation — registrations, inspections, and insurance certificates renewed on time
- Credentialing packets — enrollment and recredentialing paperwork assembled and submitted properly
- Trip logs & signatures — documentation organized per trip, ready when the prime or state asks
- Claims & invoicing — billed to your prime on their schedule, in their format
- Payment reconciliation — paid vs. performed compared line by line, shorts chased to resolution

Pricing
How much does subcontractor back-office support cost?
Subcontractor rates leave little room for a full-time office hire. A dedicated SSN seat covers intake, compliance paperwork, and billing at typically 35–70% less than a fully-loaded employee — and scales down to part-time hours while your trip volume is still growing.
A prime can forgive a breakdown — vehicles break. What they can't forgive is not knowing: about the trip, the insurance lapse, the unbilled month. Subcontracts survive on paperwork and phone calls.

Common questions
Medicaid subcontracting support, answered honestly
We can't promise a contract — the primary contractor or broker decides who they work with. What we do is make you easy to say yes to: enrollment paperwork completed properly, driver and vehicle files audit-ready, and a back office that answers the phone. Providers lose subcontracts on sloppiness more than price.
More than most owners expect: driver files with licenses, clearances, and training records; vehicle registrations, inspections, and insurance certificates; trip logs and signature sheets; and the credentialing packets your prime or broker requires. We keep all of it current and track every expiration date, so renewals never lapse.
Yes. We prepare trip documentation the way your prime or broker wants it, submit claims or invoices on their schedule, reconcile what was paid against what was run, and chase the shorts. Subcontractors quietly lose real money to unbilled and underpaid trips — that leak is fixable.
No. Program rules, licensing, and contract terms come from your state, your attorney, and your prime contractor — we don't interpret regulations for you. What we provide is the administrative muscle: forms completed, files maintained, deadlines met, and records organized so your compliance obligations are actually kept.
By never letting the file drift. Every driver and vehicle document lives in an organized, current file with expiration tracking, every trip has its log and signatures attached, and gaps get flagged the week they appear — not the week the broker or state asks. Audits go smoothly when nothing needs reconstructing.
Our team works daily inside Modivcare, MTM, and Access2Care portals and processes, and we've supported providers running trips under regional primes as well. Every prime has its own paperwork quirks; we learn yours during setup and write them into the playbook you approve.
Yes, on the operational side. We help you assemble enrollment and credentialing packets, organize driver and vehicle documentation, and build the intake and billing process before your first trip. Pair that with your attorney for contract review, and you launch with a back office instead of a shoebox.
