Booqit is a startup from Belgium, Brussels.
Booqit makes the organization of non-emergent medical transport easy. Institutions, health insurance funds and individuals can manage online reservations of medical transport via our platform. The booking is automatically added to the planning of the transport company. Therefore the transport companies can rely on our planning software or link their own system to our platform. Having a strong social motivation, our dream is also to simplify the social transport to boost the autonomy of seniors and people with reduced mobility..
