Medical transportation on release from out patient surgery

[FrancesL826874]

I have searched everywhere and everything to find Transportation to get me home after outpatient surgery with light anaesthesia. Hospitals/doctors will not release to Uber or Lyft type companies. What does one do to get home?

@FrancesL826874 Hi Frances, you may want to check out the Eldercare Locator for assistance with local medical transport referrals: https://aarp.info/2U8pAZZ Also, your health insurance policy may be able to help. Be sure to check with your insurance provider to determine if there's a benefit for transportation.
