transportation subsidy, would you be interested in participating in a software
“billing system” to recoup that available funding?

Reasons for not recouping funding
• “We don’t track individuals names, but rather just count the riders.”
• We’re already funded through MA.• Already reimbursed through fee-for-services from the
state of MN• Multiple responsibilities, time is a big factor• Too few riders• Interested in recouping funding, but not adding another
software program to preexisting system• No funding• “We have contracts”
![Page 14: Results from Transportation Survey](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012922/568159f6550346895dc7421c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

How was this rate determined?
• “Historical average rate for all people served- currently $4.02 per day (no matter if people are driven 1 mile or 20 miles).”
• Set by legislation• Federal Reimbursement Rate• IRS plus administration fees• “Per Month”• “Some have a set rate they pay out to all agencies others are negotiable”• “MA reimburses at IRS rate; UCare and BlueRide have their own rates”• “Set in contract when it came to the office!”• “Based on sliding scale for the Federal Mileage Rate and inflation for
expenses and subsidy from funds.”• “The Department of Human Services rate schedule which permits only
marginal increases provided by COLA increases.”
