Ford GoRide Health Expands

Ford Motor Company is expanding its GoRide Health non-emergency medical transportation business nationwide, starting with Ohio. GoRide Health expects to deliver thousands of rides per day in six cities by the end of the year.

GoRide Health is operating in Toledo now, with service coming to Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus by the end of the year. Later this year, the business plans to begin offering its services in major cities in Florida, beginning with Miami. In 2020, it plans to expand to several other states, including North Carolina, Louisiana, Texas, and California.

The startup transportation service spent more than a year perfecting its operations and customer experience in Southeast Michigan. GoRide Health's reputation for reliable, safe and quality service built upon healthcare compliance – and a 95 percent on-time rate through the first quarter of the year – has attracted the attention of large managed care organizations.
