A DOT physical is an in-depth health check required by the Department of Transportation for all commercial vehicle operators. The purpose of this exam is to confirm that drivers are in good physical, mental, and emotional health to handle large vehicles safely on public thoroughfares. Certified medical examiners, registered on the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners, conduct this examination. A successful exam grants drivers a DOT medical certificate, essential for holding a valid CDL license as per FMCSA standards. If your regulation falls under another DOT agency and you need guidance, call us at 800-221-4291.
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.
