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.
For patients in Northport, DachiPlus provides dependable radiation transport. From Northport, that usually means trips to Memorial Sloan Kettering Commack, NY Cancer & Blood Specialists (Smithtown) and Stony Brook Cancer Center, roughly 19 minutes away. Covered by Medicaid through MAS, or pay privately at (516) 754-7777.
In Northport, 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 companion seating for caregiver or family member.
