Stumbled upon this pretty interesting program. 8 month online MS Biological Sciences with automatic admission to St Matthew's Medical School in the Cayman Islands.
Pretty good option for those who are willing to go to the Carribean and are having trouble getting into US MD/DO schools

There's a risk a candidate will paint themselves into the corner of this one admissions pathway at this one offshore school, when with eight months and a five figure budget they could taken other steps to improve their application sufficiently either for US MD/DO or for the same or another at least as strong offshore school.

Especially considering that you don't need a master's degree to get into med school. Assuming you have a bachelor's, which you would need anyway, fulfilling the premed curriculum could be done for much less. Now, if you have a possible use for the master's in the case you don't finish med school, that could be interesting.

It looks like Global University Systems
recently introduced identical or near identical online MS in Biological Science programs from all three Caribbean medical schools the company operates. Descriptions and costs seem copied.
The degree is available from St. Matthew's University as linked in the OP,
from Saba University, and
from Medical University of the Americas.
