IMPORTANT DOT SERVICE

DOT Return-to-Duty Follow-Up Plan Administration

For employees completing the DOT return-to-duty process, we administer the follow-up testing plan prescribed by the Substance Abuse Professional.

  • Review and set up the SAP testing plan
  • Coordinate unannounced follow-up tests
  • Monitor deadlines and plan completion
  • Maintain records for the employer
  • Submit required FMCSA Clearinghouse reports when designated

RETURN-TO-DUTY COMPLIANCE

Follow-Up Testing Cannot Be Left to Chance

MedScreens Manages the Plan From Setup Through Completion

After the employee completes the SAP process and receives a negative return-to-duty test result, every test in the SAP-prescribed follow-up plan must still be completed. MedScreens coordinates the unannounced tests, tracks the plan and maintains clear documentation. For FMCSA-regulated drivers, we can also submit the required return-to-duty and follow-up-plan completion information to the Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse when MedScreens is properly designated.

DOT REQUIREMENT

At Least 6 Tests in the First 12 Months

The SAP may require additional follow-up tests for up to five years. Follow-up testing is separate from the employer’s regular random testing program.

HOW THE SERVICE WORKS

A Clear Four-Step Process

1

Receive the SAP Plan

The employer provides the follow-up testing plan issued by the qualified SAP.

2

Set Up the Schedule

We establish the required testing window while keeping selections unannounced.

3

Coordinate Testing

MedScreens notifies the appropriate contact, monitors testing and documents completion.

4

Report Completion

Required FMCSA Clearinghouse information is submitted when we are designated to report.

Please note: The Substance Abuse Professional—not MedScreens or the employer—determines the number and frequency of follow-up tests. MedScreens administers the prescribed plan. FMCSA Clearinghouse reporting applies to FMCSA-regulated drivers and requires the appropriate employer authorization or designation.
