So if I understand you correctly, the ride sharing service you are booking through provides insurance in case you're in an accident and gets injured?
So if you do negotiate a cash ride, you would be limited to the insurance coverage limits that the driver has determined they should have on their vehicle. Again, in the case you are injured in an accident.
I didn't think of that, so thanks.

Correct by booking on platform you're covered under Uber or Lyft insurance. You go off platform and do a cash ride, you're on whatever insurance that driver has. More than likely they haven't told their car insurance they're driving people and if they get into an accident, their insurance may not cover any of it.
For me it's not worth the chance.

It would be to a job and everyone I know that could drive me would be working or going to work.
Also, I am aware of the transportation assistance with medical appointments but I go to the VA and get transportation from a Veterans group.
Thanks for thinking about it though.
