Total Transit/Discount Cab Expands Reach to California
Latest move marks the second out-of-state expansion for Total Transit, having already secured a contract in Salt Lake City, Utah.
- Phoenix-Mesa, AZ (1888PressRelease) January 20, 2012 - Total Transit, parent company to Discount Cab, is proud to announce that it has begun providing transportation management services in both Riverside and San Bernardino Counties in California for a rather large managed care health plan. This marks the second out-of-state move for Total Transit in just under six months.
Toward the end of 2011, Total Transit/Discount Cab secured its first out-of-state expansion with a contract to begin operations in Salt Lake City, Utah in early, 2012.
As a basis for the expansion, Total Transit leveraged the company's position in the transportation industry with respect to standards and eco-friendly initiatives, driver requirements that go above and beyond what is typically required by law, the company's commitment to driver certifications to provide mobility/wheelchair-accommodating transportation for those with disabilities and finally the creation of a robust transportation provider network to support the thousands of Medicaid and Medi-Cal members who reside in the Inland Empire.
"I am thrilled with this new momentum we've seen as a result of our efforts to expand out-of-state," said Total Transit CEO Craig Hughes. "Total Transit has three lines of business and we have now successfully broken into two out-of-state markets; first with our Cab operations in Salt Lake City, Utah and now with our transportation management line of business in the Inland Empire. We certainly offer a service that is both unique and important to those needing transportation. Our level of service continues to resonate with Arizonans, and we are excited to get the opportunity to prove our model in new markets across the country."
