DOT physical exams are thorough medical checks mandated by the Department of Transportation for drivers of commercial vehicles. These exams are vital to confirm drivers have the physical, mental, and emotional ability to drive on public roads safely. A certified medical examiner (CME) on the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners (NRCME) conducts the test. A passing result earns a DOT Medical Certificate, required for holding a CDL under FMCSA rules. For inquiries about specific DOT exams, call 800-221-4291.

Why is a DOT Consortium Required?

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.
