Motor carrier group pooling will allow for affordable per month per member fees. Pre-screen for medical problems, screen for a complete turn-key certified sleep apnea management program. New FMCSA rules require CDL drivers medical certificate to be recorded on the CDLIS and very soon DOT medical examiners will have to undergo a training and certification process. In the future it will be more difficult for drivers with "broderline" health conditions to obtain medical certification. HealthPass is the answer for owner operator/independent contractor fleets.
