THE DOT COMPLIANCE HUB
C/TPA Follow-Up Testing Plan Support
DOT Compliance HUB helps Owner-Operators, employers, and DERs connect with our C/TPA support for Step 6 follow-up testing coordination, reminders, tracking, and DOT compliance.
Stay compliant after the return-to-duty test.
WHAT IS A FOLLOW-UP TESTING PLAN?
A follow-up testing plan is created by the SAP after the employee successfully complies with the SAP’s education and/or treatment recommendation.
The plan specifies how many follow-up tests are required, the types of testing needed, and the testing period.
Follow-up tests must be unannounced and separate from random testing.
IMPORTANT REMINDER
Follow-Up Testing is mandatory
Tests must be unannounced with no discernible patterns
Random tests cannot replace follow-up tests
The SAP is the sole determiner of the number, frequency, and type of test
HOW THE FOLLOW-UP TESTING SUPPORT PROCESS WORKS?
STEP 1: SAP PLAN RECEIVED
The SAP provides the follow-up testing plan to the employer or DER.
STEP 2: C/TPA COORDINATION
A C/TPA helps coordinate testing support and compliance tracking.
STEP 3: TESTING SCHEDULE
Follow-up tests are scheduled as unannounced tests with no predictable patterns.
STEP 4: RESULTS TRACKED
Testing progress is monitored to keep the employer or owner-operator organized.
