Wingz is a healthcare-focused rideshare platform built specifically for Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT). It connects credentialed, background-checked drivers with patients - often elderly, disabled, or low-income riders - who need reliable, scheduled rides to and from medical appointments. Originally launched in 2011 as Tickengo (the first company in the world to win a ride-sharing license, ahead of Uber and Lyft), Wingz pivoted to specialize in medical transport: HIPAA-trained drivers, transparent contracted pricing with no surge, recurring 'standing order' trips, and curb-to-curb, door-to-door, and hand-to-hand service levels. The company partners with NEMT brokers, Medicaid/Medicare payors, and health plans, and has delivered over one million rides across multiple U.S. states.
