*** Information regarding the
National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners
***
I will be undergoing the testing
necessary to become a Certified Medical Examiner at some point
in 2013. BUT since it involves extra cost and a lot more
paper work, I am in no hurry to sign up!
You (as a
driver) and I (as an Examiner) have until May 2014 to
comply with these new rules.
My advice is to get your next physical taken care of well before May 2014. Even if your current card expires in March, April or May of 2014. Why you ask? It is estimated that the number of physicians who currently perform these physicals will drop from roughly 200,000 to 50,000 nation wide. The new course and testing is expensive and time consuming, obviously a lot of doctors will not bother with it. That means your options will go down as far as who can perform your physical, your wait time will likely increase and your cost will likely increase as well.
Your best choice for DOT and Pre-Employment Physicals in MN, either on site or in office. Go to www.qualityphysicals.com to book your appointment.
