Preparing for an evaluation
Provide the violation information and contact details requested by the SAP. For a follow-up evaluation, arrange the necessary releases and completion information from the recommended program. A receipt or the employee’s own account may not give the SAP enough evidence to decide successful compliance.
Checking qualifications for Missouri
When arranging an evaluation in Missouri, distinguish the employee’s actual location from the employer’s address. Missouri’s Division of Professional Registration provides a licensee search through its online services. Where the SAP relies on a state professional license, Missouri professional license search may help verify that credential. DOT qualification and any restrictions on remote practice require separate confirmation.
Keep testing responsibilities clear
The SAP sets the follow-up testing plan and the employer carries it out. Tests are unannounced, and the employee must not be told the schedule, frequency or duration of the plan. Random testing and a general workplace test cannot replace a required follow-up test.
An employer that chooses to proceed must arrange the required return-to-duty test and decide whether to return the employee to covered work.
Before booking, ask about the SAP’s DOT qualifications, evaluation format, reports and separate charges for education or treatment. Confirm availability directly. A directory entry or state license search does not establish that the practitioner accepts the case or can promise a completion date.
For the wider process, read the service guide and DOT SAP guidance. Compare declared coverage and confirm the required service directly with any provider you contact.
