Common questions about this calculator

How is this calculated?

Every number above comes from your inputs plus four constants drawn from BTS 2024 fleet-cost data:

  • NEMT cost per mile: $1.85 — BTS baseline scaled for heavier NEMT vans.
  • Deadhead target: 20% — the optimized-fleet floor. Untracked fleets average 30–40%.
  • Preventable no-shows: 30% — share of no-shows we can cut with reminders and smart re-routing.
  • Revenue-per-mile capture: 50% — the slice of multi-load revenue lift you'd realistically capture (kept conservative).

In NEMT, only completed trips are reimbursed (loaded miles + base fare), so revenue and miles are calculated on completed trips — no-show trips are not paid and do not generate miles. The MediRoutes platform fee is already subtracted from your net gain above — the figure you see is take-home, not headline. MediRoutes platform fee: $0.50 per completed trip — already subtracted from your net gain above.

Where does the $1.85/mile cost figure come from?

It's anchored to the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics 2024 vehicle cost-of-ownership data (~$0.82/mile for a passenger vehicle), scaled up for the heavier wear-and-tear, higher insurance, and lower fuel economy of NEMT vans. Our ebook documents the working range as $1.32 on the low end and $2.50 in high-insurance markets — we use $1.85 as a conservative middle. If your real CPM is higher, your real savings are higher.

Is the $0.50/trip MediRoutes price real? What does it include?

Yes. Our list price is $0.50 per managed trip — no per-seat licenses, no setup fees, no charges for unused vehicles. That single price includes automated route optimization, multi-load detection, dispatcher and driver mobile apps, SMS ride reminders, broker API trip imports, integrated billing with EVS validation, and reporting. The calculator subtracts this fee from your projected recovery before showing your net annual gain — so the number you see is the take-home, not the headline.

What if I don't know my current deadhead percentage?

You're not alone — most untracked fleets don't measure it. Start with the calculator's default of 35%; data we've seen across hundreds of NEMT providers puts the average between 30 and 40% before any route optimization is in place. If you want a real number for one week, compare your total miles driven (odometer-to-odometer) against your billed/managed trip miles. The difference is your deadhead, and it's almost always larger than people expect.

Why is 20% deadhead the floor — can it go lower?

20% is the realistic optimized-fleet target, not a theoretical minimum. Some deadhead is unavoidable: drivers still have to commute to their first pickup, return from their last drop-off, and reposition during shift changes. Best-in-class fleets running MediRoutes consistently hit 15–22%. We use 20% as the conservative floor in the calculator so the savings figures don't overpromise.
