CPAM-approved medical taxi in Toulon
Toulon, a municipality of 171,953 inhabitants in France, has a dense hospital network that requires reliable medical transport. The CPAM-approved medical taxi in Toulon is the go-to solution for patients who need regular transport to healthcare facilities: hospitals, dialysis centres, chemotherapy units, physiotherapy clinics or specialist consultations.
Professional seated transport (TAP — Transport Assis Professionnalisé) is a healthcare transport mode regulated by the French Public Health Code. Unlike a standard taxi ride, an approved medical taxi involves a CPAM-certified vehicle, a driver trained in transporting patients with reduced mobility or medical conditions, and the option for third-party billing (tiers payant) — meaning the CPAM pays the taxi directly, with no upfront cost for the patient.
In Toulon, our drivers provide daily transport to Hôpital d'Instruction des Armées Sainte-Anne, Hôpital Font-Pré, Hôpital de la Seyne-sur-Mer and Clinique Saint-Michel. Each journey is coordinated with your healthcare facility to respect your appointment times. The driver picks you up at home, accompanies you to the facility entrance, waits for your session or consultation to end, then takes you home.
For patients undergoing regular treatment (dialysis 3 times a week, chemotherapy every 2 weeks, daily physiotherapy sessions), the CPAM-approved medical taxi in Toulon offers series packages (5 or 10 round trips) that reduce the per-trip cost and simplify administrative management. A single transport prescription covers the entire series.
CPAM approval is the cornerstone of medical taxi service in Toulon. To qualify, the patient must have a medical transport prescription (PMT) issued by their GP or hospital doctor before the transport. This prescription specifies the prescribed transport mode (taxi, VSL or ambulance), the consultation location and the expected treatment duration.
Patients with long-term conditions (ALD), work-related injuries (AT), disability, or covered by CMU-C or ACS benefit from 100% coverage by the French national health insurance. For other patients, coverage is 65%, with the remainder potentially covered by supplementary health insurance (mutuelle).
Our 180+ partner drivers in Toulon are all CPAM-approved, equipped for third-party billing (electronic claims transmission), and trained in welcoming vulnerable, elderly or mobility-impaired patients. Each vehicle is equipped with a first-aid kit, a stretcher and, for wheelchair-accessible vehicles, an access ramp and wheelchair securing systems.
Toulon has 171,953 inhabitants — our CPAM-approved drivers cover every neighbourhood.

How it works
Book in 4 steps
Get your prescription
Ask your GP or hospital doctor for a medical transport prescription (PMT) specifying “taxi” or “TAP” mode. This prescription is mandatory for CPAM coverage of your medical taxi in Toulon.
Book your medical taxi
Call us at +33 7 59 59 29 34 or fill in the online form. Indicate the date, appointment time, healthcare facility, preferred vehicle type (sedan or PMR van), and whether a companion will be present. For series, one call is enough to schedule all sessions.
The driver transports you
On the day of the appointment, your driver arrives at your home in Toulon 10 minutes early. They help you into the vehicle, drive you directly to the healthcare facility, accompany you to the department, wait for your session to end, then take you home.
CPAM pays directly
At the end of the transport, the driver processes the electronic claims form with your Carte Vitale. CPAM pays the taxi directly. You pay nothing upfront if you have ALD, AT, CMU-C or disability status. Otherwise, only the co-payment (35%) remains, which is usually covered by your supplementary insurance.
Our advantages
Why choose TaxiNeo?
CPAM approved — Third-party billing
No upfront payment, CPAM pays the taxi directly
The CPAM-approved medical taxi in Toulon operates on third-party billing: CPAM pays the driver directly, you pay nothing upfront (under ALD, AT, CMU-C). For non-exempt patients, the 35% co-payment is invoiced to your supplementary insurance. Electronic claims are processed in real time from the vehicle.
Wheelchair-accessible vehicles (PMR)
Access ramp, wheelchair securing, adapted space
Our medical taxi fleet in Toulon includes specially adapted vehicles for people with reduced mobility: vans with electric or manual access ramps, floor-mounted wheelchair securing systems, and sufficient interior space for powered wheelchairs. Drivers are trained in wheelchair handling and patient assistance getting in and out of the vehicle.
Guaranteed punctuality
Arrival 10 minutes before your medical appointment
Punctuality is critical for medical transports: a delay to dialysis can shift the entire centre's schedule, a delay to chemotherapy can postpone the session. Our drivers in Toulon commit to arriving 10 minutes before your appointment time. Travel time is calculated using real-time traffic conditions and local knowledge of Toulon.
Medically trained drivers
First aid training, patient care, adapted techniques
Our medical taxi drivers in Toulon undergo specific healthcare transport training: first aid (PSC1), techniques for assisting people with reduced mobility, welcoming and communicating with vulnerable patients, and adapted driving (smooth, without sudden movements). They are also trained in hygiene protocols specific to healthcare transport.
Automatic recurring schedule
One call to schedule all your weekly sessions
For regular transports (dialysis, chemotherapy, rehabilitation), we set up a recurring schedule in Toulon. You call once, we program all your journeys for the week or month. The same driver is assigned to each session where possible, creating a trust relationship essential for patient wellbeing.
Bus lanes and taxi access
Faster journeys through reserved lanes
As professional taxis, our medical taxi drivers in Toulon have access to bus lanes and taxi-reserved lanes. This is a major advantage for medical transports in urban areas, where traffic jams can delay a medical appointment. A faster journey also means less fatigue for the patient.

Comparison
Medical taxi, VSL or ambulance in Toulon?
Medical transport in Toulon can be provided by three types of vehicles, each suited to a different level of patient dependency. Understanding the differences helps choose the most appropriate and cost-effective transport mode.
CPAM-approved medical taxi (TAP)
The CPAM-approved medical taxi in Toulon is designed for patients who can travel seated, with or without assistance. It is the most common and most cost-effective medical transport mode for the national health insurance. The patient is picked up at home, transported directly to the healthcare facility, then taken home after their consultation or session. The vehicle can be a standard sedan or a wheelchair-accessible vehicle (PMR).
Light Sanitary Vehicle (VSL)
The VSL is a vehicle operated by an ambulance company, with a driver trained in healthcare transport. It is prescribed for patients requiring light monitoring during the journey (IV drip, oxygen). The VSL is generally more expensive than a medical taxi as it includes onboard medical equipment costs. For autonomous or semi-autonomous patients, the medical taxi is often preferred by the prescribing doctor.
Ambulance
The ambulance is reserved for patients who must be transported in a lying position or require continuous medical monitoring during the journey. It is the most expensive transport mode, with a 2-person crew (paramedic + auxiliary). Ambulances are mandatory in certain situations (immediate post-operative, intubated patients, life-threatening emergencies).
For the vast majority of regular medical transports in Toulon (dialysis, chemotherapy, rehabilitation, consultations), the CPAM-approved medical taxi is the most appropriate, cost-effective and comfortable transport mode.
| Criteria | Medical taxi (TAP) | VSL | Ambulance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Patient position | Seated | Seated | Lying |
| Medical monitoring | No | Light | Continuous |
| Crew | 1 driver | 1 driver | 2 persons |
| Cost to CPAM | Lowest | Intermediate | Highest |
| Wheelchair access | Yes (PMR vehicle) | Yes | Yes |
| Third-party billing | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Bus lanes | Yes | No | Yes (emergency) |
Practical info
Practical information — Medical taxi Toulon
Medical transport prescription (PMT)
The PMT is mandatory to qualify for CPAM reimbursement of your medical taxi in Toulon. It must be issued by your GP or hospital doctor BEFORE the transport. The prescription states the prescribed transport mode (taxi/TAP), the destination, the medical reason and the number of authorised trips. Without a prior prescription, the transport will not be reimbursed.
Carte Vitale and supplementary insurance
Present your Carte Vitale and supplementary insurance card (mutuelle) to the driver at each trip. The driver processes the electronic claims form directly from the vehicle. With full third-party billing (ALD, AT, CMU-C), you pay nothing upfront. With partial third-party billing, the complementary portion is invoiced to your mutuelle.
ALD and 100% coverage
Patients with a recognised Long-Term Condition (ALD — Affection de Longue Durée) benefit from 100% coverage of their medical transport in Toulon. This includes kidney dialysis, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, certain chronic conditions (diabetes, multiple sclerosis, heart failure) and post-stroke care.
Professional Seated Transport (TAP)
TAP is the medical transport mode designed for patients who can travel seated but need assistance or monitoring during the journey. It is the most common category of medical transport in Toulon. The TAP-approved taxi is equipped to accommodate wheelchair patients (PMR vehicle) or patients requiring a semi-reclined position.
Documents required
