SafeRide Health Wins 2026 MedTech Breakthrough Award for Advancing Data-driven Healthcare Performance

SafeRide Health, a leading technology-enabled medical transportation company focused on improving access to care, today announced it has been selected as the winner of the “Healthcare Analytics Innovation Award” in the 10th annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program.

“This award is a meaningful recognition of our mission to make access to care more reliable, transparent and measurable,” said Robbins Schrader, Co-Founder and CEO of SafeRide Health. “Transportation has long been treated as a logistical afterthought, when in reality it directly impacts care access, outcomes and member trust. Better data drives better decisions, stronger coordination and ultimately better experiences for the people who depend on these services.”

The annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program recognizes the most innovative products, companies and individuals in the global digital health and medical technology industries. The Healthcare Analytics Innovation award win reflects SafeRide’s success in turning transportation data into actionable insights that help plans and providers improve reliability, reduce missed care and elevate the member experience.

SafeRide Health’s analytics-driven approach is a differentiator in the industry, helping healthcare organizations move beyond transactional ride management and toward an end-to-end view of transportation performance. Through real-time visibility and operational insights, organizations can monitor rides as they happen; identify service issues earlier; reduce fraud, waste, and abuse risk; and make continuous improvements across utilization, dispatch, member experience, and network performance.

The results of this approach translate to strengthened program integrity and member satisfaction. In 2025, SafeRide delivered 99% ride fulfillment and a 97.8% on-time rate, helping ensure members consistently reach critical appointments.

“As healthcare organizations face growing pressure to improve quality, manage costs and deliver more member-centered experiences,” Schrader said, “SafeRide Health is honored to be named among other technology partners advancing care and access through innovation.”
