A DOT physical is an all-encompassing health assessment mandated for every commercial motor vehicle operator by the Department of Transportation. This evaluation verifies that drivers are in the right physical, mental, and emotional condition to manage large vehicles safely on roads. Conducted by a certified medical examiner from the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners, a successful result grants a DOT medical certificate needed to keep a CDL valid under FMCSA rules.

Owner Operators- DOT requires all owner-operators to enroll in a consortium so they are included in a compliant random testing pool because they cannot randomly test themselves.
Small Employers-Some smaller companies may not have enough drivers or safety-sensitive employees to maintain their own statistically valid random pool. Therefore, by joining a consortium, they are combined with other companies to form a large pool that meets DOT testing requirements.
Large Employers-Larger fleets may manage their own random pool but often use a consortium/TPA to outsource the process, reduce administrative burden, and ensure strict compliance.
