Traumatic brain injury patients face a unique set of transportation challenges: cognitive impairments affecting communication, sensitivity to light and noise, unpredictable fatigue, medication side effects, and the need for a consistent, calm driver who understands TBI presentations. DachiPlus provides specialized transportation for TBI patients attending outpatient TBI rehabilitation programs, cognitive and neurological therapy, speech-language pathology, occupational therapy, and ongoing neurology follow-up. Most TBI transportation is covered by no-fault auto insurance or workers' compensation — we handle the direct billing so patients can focus entirely on recovery.
