Changes in Reporting Requirements

Previously, Medical Examiners (MEs) were required to report the results of all CMV drivers’ physical qualification examinations on a monthly basis. However, MEs are now required to report the results of all CMV drivers’ physical examinations, including examinations in which drivers were found to not be qualified to FMCSA by midnight (local time) of the next calendar day following the examination.

MEs may also report results of examinations performed in accordance with the FMCSRs with any applicable State variances (valid for intrastate only operation)

Changes to reporting when no examinations have been completed

MEs are required to report when no examinations have been completed during the month on the last day of the month.

This is done through your National Registry account using the CMV Driver Medical Examinations menu option and selecting “Report No Exams for the Current Month.” 

For more information, providers can contact the DOT directly at FMCTECHSUP@dot.gov (recommended) or by telephone at (617) 494-3003.
