Medical couriers are being offered low-paying routes with poor compensation models that don't account for round-trip mileage or reasonable hourly rates.

Current gig platforms offer routes with compensation that doesn't cover expenses adequately, using one-way mileage pay that ignores return trips and fails to provide transparent rate structures.
