Test Requests / Test Request definition
Employee Test Request
The Test Request in the Med-Stop system serves two primary purposes:
1) To schedule an employee test for a specific date, time, and location
2) To comply with DOT regulations (Part 382: Controlled Substances and Alcohol Use and Testing – Requirement for Notice) for DOT-regulated companies.
Creating a Test Request
When creating a Test Request, you can:
- Specify the exact location where the test must be performed.
- Validate the selected location’s availability for testing.
- Fax the request details directly to the testing site to reduce time wasted by the employee.
Managing the Test Request
Each Test Request is saved in the Med-Stop system and allows you to:
- Monitor the employee’s testing status.
- Maintain a clear and complete test history.
Once the test is completed at a Med-Stop location:
- You will be notified immediately.
- The request status will be updated to reflect that the test has been performed.
- You can access the test information directly from the Test Request Details window and link the request to the final test result.
