Physicians using the FMCSA Medical Manager, can choose to have an eHealth Engagement, LLC. Senior FMCSA Medical Director assigned to oversee their medical work. Having an assigned Medical Director within the FMCSA Medical Manager is seamless and is a real plus for FMCSA examiners as it ensures that each of their medical case submissions is reviewed and given a second “fair and impartial” medical opinion.

Additionally, eHealth Medical Directors review each examiner case submitted to ensure that the examiner and their team have gathered all of the necessary medical evidence to support their Fit/Not Fit determination. This is critical when it comes to ensuring a comprehensive documentation trail to mitigate the risk of medical fault should an accident occur. Choosing to use medical director oversight is a great option to help in ensuring good health for your patients.

During a patient examination, the medical examiner is responsible for documenting all the patient health details within the FMCSA mandated “Medical Examination Report”. A key piece of information included in this report is the medical examiner’s driver “DETERMINATION” which specifies what type of driver certificate terms are recommended to be granted. Once a medical examiner has rendered a determination for a given medical examination, the medical examiner then transmits the Medical Examination Report to eHealth Engagement, LLC.
