Advisory committees support NEMTAC’s mission by contributing expertise to:

• Drafting and reviewing standards and program criteria
• Identifying operational risks, gaps, and emerging needs in NEMT
• Evaluating public comments and recommended revisions
• Supporting ongoing maintenance of standards over time
• Informing education program content aligned with approved standards

Committees are designed to strengthen quality, safety, reliability, and accountability while respecting the diversity of operating models and regional needs.

Advisory committees are not trade associations, lobbying bodies, or advocacy groups. Members do not participate to advance a single organization, business model, or commercial interest.

Committee work is structured to support neutrality, balance, and due process.

Advisory committee members are volunteers drawn from across the NEMT ecosystem, which may include:

• NEMT providers (across service levels and fleet models)
• Brokers, health plans, and payer representatives
• Regulators, compliance professionals, and government stakeholders
• Safety, training, and risk-management subject-matter experts
• Technology and systems professionals and vendors
• Other relevant stakeholders aligned to committee scope

NEMTAC seeks representation that improves balance and practical credibility.

Advisory committee and workgroup appointments are two-year terms.

Participation typically includes:

• Scheduled virtual meetings
• Review of materials between meetings as needed
• Professional, respectful deliberation focused on consensus-building

Time commitments vary by committee and by the stage of the work.

NEMTAC’s committee structure is designed to:

• Prevent dominance by any single interest group
• Preserve independence and neutrality
• Ensure transparency and accountability
• Support long-term institutional continuity

Committee members may be asked to disclose potential conflicts of interest when relevant to a topic under discussion.

NEMTAC is an ANSI-accredited Standards Developing Organization (SDO). Committee work supports an open, consensus-based process that emphasizes balance, due process, and public input.

Participation in a committee is one way to contribute. Public comment opportunities are also available to the broader industry regardless of committee membership.

NEMTAC advisory committees are intentionally structured to reflect balanced representation across the full non-emergency medical transportation ecosystem. Participation does not imply endorsement of any specific business model, organization, or policy position.
