4. Service Limitations

While we strive to deliver packages within the estimated timeframes, there are situations beyond our control (such as weather conditions, traffic delays, or other unforeseen circumstances) that may result in delays.

5. HIPAA Compliance and Medical Deliveries

Medcare Couriers is committed to the secure handling, storage, and transportation of protected health information (PHI) in accordance with HIPAA regulations.
