The MOTOR Fund has been created to assist individuals who need to travel a significant distance to receive medical care. The fund has been established to lessen the financial burden on individuals and families that can result from obtaining medical care that is sometimes far away from home.
Please review these eligibility requirements to see if you qualify for reimbursement of travel expenses from the MOTOR Fund. If you feel that you qualify, please fill out and send in the Recipient Form. If you are uncertain whether or not you qualify, please send in the information. Applications will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
MILEAGE
The first requirement of eligibility for support from the MOTOR Fund is mileage traveled to and from the medical facility where your care is obtained. Currently, this distance is set at 250 miles or greater, or 500 miles round trip or greater.
DISTANCE = 250 MILES or greater (500 MILES ROUND-TRIP or greater)
This distance traveled will be verified by MapQuest or a similar program and is from your home (or similar location) to the designated care facility. The distance of side trips to visit a relative, Disneyland, sight-seeing, etc will not be covered by the MOTOR Fund and may not be included in this distance. You can verify this distance by selecting the link to MapQuest and entering the required information. (Submission of a printout of this confirmation of mileage with your Recipient Form is highly recommended.)
Mileage traveled by vehicle will be covered at $0.14 cents (USD) per mile, or actual expenses incurred (cost of fuel), whichever is requested by the recipient. (If cost of fuel is requested, receipts of these expenses must accompany the Recipient Form.)
If travel is obtained by airfare, train, bus, or other means, please submit this receipt and all additional expenses (travel to the airport, taxi, shuttle, rental car, parking fees, etc).
