Mileage reimbursement rate has gone up
Ride to Care has raised the mileage reimbursement rate. This affects the amount it pays members who drive themselves to and from their appointments. Members now get $0.65 per mile instead of the old rate of $0.25. This change goes back to January 1, 2023. It also applies to friends or family that give rides to members.
For those who filed a claim in 2023 or 2022 and got paid based on the old rates, more money is on the way! In the coming months, members will get a letter in the mail about the payments. This new rate will now match the Federal IRS rate. It will also help keep up with inflation and rising fuel prices. For any questions, call Ride to Care at 855-321-4899.
