DOT physicals are thorough health evaluations mandated by the Department of Transportation for CMV drivers. These evaluations verify that drivers are capable of safely operating large vehicles on public roads. A certified medical examiner, listed on the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners, performs this exam. Passing it earns a DOT medical certificate, needed to keep a valid CDL license under FMCSA rules. For guidance on your specific DOT physical, call 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.
