What a Houston fleet has to get right
Houston, United States sits in North America, and the operating detail here is specific enough that a generic dispatch setup will fight you. Licensing runs through City of Houston ARA vehicle-for-hire, which decides which driver and vehicle documents you must hold and keep current. Fares price and settle in USD, and riders expect to pay with Stripe, Apple Pay or cash — so the payment rails are not an afterthought, they are how the money actually arrives. Airport work means George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) and Hobby (HOU), each with its own permit rules, staging area and fee structure to build into the fare.
Houston's dual airports — George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) and Hobby (HOU) — mean airport dispatch handles two different catchments and fee structures.
Texas has a large Medicaid-funded NEMT market, so non-emergency medical transport is a major recurring revenue stream.
Energy-corridor corporate accounts drive steady point-to-point and executive-transfer demand.

The state of NEMT dispatch software in Houston
Why NEMT dispatch software looks nothing like it did five years ago
NEMT is recurring, publicly funded, and audited — which makes integrity the whole game. Government watchdogs treat medical-transport billing as a live fraud risk: nearly 200 criminal convictions and civil settlements were secured against Medicaid transportation providers across 25 states in recent years, and federal reviewers opened a fresh targeted billing-integrity project in 2025.

The hard parts
What actually makes NEMT dispatch software hard — and how TaxiDex handles it
Dialysis and recurring appointments mean the same trips every week, re-entered by hand.
Standing orders and recurring trips build the weekly schedule automatically.
Broker and MCO trips arrive as spreadsheets and portal exports.
Broker trip imports pull them straight into dispatch, ready to assign.
No signature or verification means no payment from the payer.
On-trip signature capture and verification produce billing-ready exports the payer accepts.

How do I switch my Houston fleet to TaxiDex safely?
We migrate your drivers, vehicles, customer accounts and live bookings from your current system (Autocab, iCabbi, Cordic or spreadsheets), run both in parallel during a 14-day proof-of-concept, then cut over. Pricing is a simple per-driver rate (from £7/driver a month) — under the rates commonly quoted for Autocab, iCabbi and Cordic at every tier, and 20% or more under them from Professional upwards, with a low one-time setup.

Switching
Moving off Autocab, iCabbi, Cordic — or a pile of spreadsheets
Most Houstonoperators aren't starting from zero — they're locked into a legacy dispatch system with steep per-driver fees, heavy setup charges, an on-prem server to babysit, and a contract that makes leaving feel risky. TaxiDex is built for the switch: it's cloud (no server), priced per driver and under Autocab, iCabbi and Cordic at every tier — by 20% or more from Professional upwards, with no trip overage and no lock-in — and we run your old system and TaxiDex side by side during a 14-day proof-of-concept — so you cut over only once it's proven on your real jobs.
