Radiation therapy requires daily Monday–Friday appointments for weeks at a time — 20 to 40 sessions depending on the treatment protocol. Each visit is relatively short (15–30 minutes), but the cumulative fatigue builds over the course of treatment. Missing sessions disrupts the treatment plan and can reduce effectiveness. DachiPlus provides standing-order daily transportation to all major radiation oncology centers on Long Island, with awareness of cumulative fatigue, punctuality requirements, and the emotional weight of a daily cancer treatment routine. Medicaid covers radiation transportation; Medicare Advantage typically includes it as well.

DachiPlus coordinates radiation transport for Lake Success, NY residents. From Lake Success, that usually means trips to NY Cancer & Blood Specialists (Great Neck), Northwell Monter Cancer Center and Perlmutter Cancer Center (NYU Langone–Long Island), roughly 5 minutes away. We accept Medicaid (via MAS), Medicare Advantage, and private pay — call (516) 754-7777.

In Lake Success, radiation transport most often serves prostate, breast, and gynecologic cancer patients in radiation treatment and head and neck cancer patients undergoing combined chemo-radiation. Every trip includes awareness of cumulative fatigue and treatment-related side effects.
