Substance Use & Addiction Treatment Transportation on Long Island
DachiPlus provides daily transportation to methadone clinics, outpatient drug and alcohol rehab, Suboxone providers, and addiction treatment programs across Nassau and Suffolk Counties. Medicaid covers most substance use transport through MAS — call 1-844-666-6270. Private pay: call (516) 754-7777.
Consistent transportation is one of the most critical — and most overlooked — factors in addiction recovery. Missing a methadone dose due to a failed ride is a medical crisis. DachiPlus provides reliable daily transportation to methadone maintenance programs (MMPs), outpatient drug and alcohol treatment centers, Suboxone and buprenorphine providers, partial hospitalization programs (PHP), and intensive outpatient programs (IOP) across Long Island. Medicaid covers most substance use transportation through MAS, including daily methadone trips via standing order. Discreet, judgment-free service.

How we run your trip
Three promises on every ride
Your return ride is never an afterthought

Dispatch you can actually reach
Call or text (516) 754-7777 and a dispatcher answers, Monday through Saturday, 6 AM to 8 PM. Same line before, during, and after your trip; running late or plans changed, you'll always reach a person.
The price is set before you ride
Medicaid trips through MAS cost you $0. Private-pay rates come from a published rate card and are quoted upfront: estimate your fare before you even call.
