Human Service Transportation Virtual Public Listening Sessions

MassHealth members and other consumers who have used PT-1 or other Human Service Transportation since July 1, 2021 are invited to share their feedback at an upcoming virtual public listening session.

Have you used PT-1 or other Human Service Transportation (HST) services since July 1, 2021? If so, share your feedback with the Human Service Transportation (HST) Office at an upcoming Virtual Public Listening Session.

Members and consumers are invited to join virtual public listening sessions to share their experience with HST services through MART and GATRA since the new contracts were implemented on July 1, 2021:
