Connecticut driver FAQ
Do I need to take a drug test to drive in Connecticut?
No. Connecticut drivers don’t take a drug test. You still need to pass a background check and a driving record check.
Which parts of Connecticut can I drive in?
Veyo drives HUSKY Health members across the state, including Hartford, New Haven and Bridgeport.
Do I need a Connecticut driver's license?
Yes.
How much is the sign-on bonus in Connecticut?
$1,000, paid as you complete trips in your first 60 days. See Pay and bonuses for the milestones.
Is this a job or contract work?
You drive as an independent contractor, not an employee, so you choose when and how much you drive.
Who will I be driving?
Medicaid and Medicare members going to scheduled health appointments: dialysis, behavioral health, substance use treatment, primary care and physical therapy. These aren’t emergencies, so you don’t need medical training beyond CPR and First Aid. All drivers are trained to provide door-through-door service, helping riders from their door to your car.
When are most trips?
Daytime, Monday through Saturday, roughly 5 a.m. to 6 p.m. The app is open 24/7, so you can drive as much or as little as you want.
Can I also drive for Uber or Lyft?
Yes. Veyo doesn’t require you to be exclusive. Just set yourself as unavailable in the Veyo app while you’re on other trips.
Do I need special insurance?
No. Your personal auto policy is enough. A rideshare endorsement is recommended, not required.
Can I use a car I don't own?
Yes, if the owner authorizes it and you’re listed on the insurance. Rental cars are accepted too, as long as you’re listed on the rental’s insurance and the car passes the vehicle inspection.
Can I drive myself to my own medical appointments?
No. If your health plan uses Veyo, driving yourself is a conflict of interest. You may qualify for mileage reimbursement instead.
How often do I get paid?
Weekly, by direct deposit. Veyo takes no commission from your trip rates.
