Hi Geoff,

I don't believe I have any responses from the forum but given that the new DOT card is based on the new long form, we are requiring a new DOT physical for those who were issued temporary cards prior to 4/20/16.
As a courtesy, we are charging a subsidized fee, if their initial exam (older version of form/ card) was within the previous 30 days.

Dr. Savul,
I am starting to run into similar situations in our practice. Have you received any responses to our query, and if so would you be willing to share? Thanks.

Subject: [MCOH-EH] DOT cards

Question to those who perform DOT physicals:
If a 30 day temporary card was issued to a driver for them to get some medical clearance prior to 4/20/16 on the older version of DOT certificate/long form, and they bring an acceptable clearance now, are you issuing the new card/certificate based on physical done prior to 4/20 on the older long form? Or doing an entire new physical on the new form.

Thanks.
