“A Ticket to Ride” – Eligibility Guidelines for Specialized Transportation Services
This paper provides an overview of the role of eligibility guidelines for specialized transportation services in Canada. Eligibility is discussed as it affects each of the major stakeholders in the specialized services; the users; the service operators; and the funding agencies. The practical importance of eligibility guidelines is demonstrated by a review of the Ontario experience with its program for the transportation of disabled persons.
