Some commenters were concerned about the term "not certified." The final rule employs the term "not-certified" to keep clear of any impression that the CDL driver has no medical credentials. This phrase makes it clear that the driver's driving privileges are not being taken away due to FMCSA's negative actions. The final rule also requires the State-designated licensing authority (SDLA) to post the medical certification status on a CDL holder's CDLIS driver record. This will prevent fraudulent and false claims that an individual who holds a CDL is medically qualified, but in reality, they aren't. To further prevent fraud in the future, the SDLA must include the contact information of the ME who conducted a medical examination in the driver's file. This requirement will continue to be in force until FMCSA issues a new rule to address this issue. Motor carriers are able to keep an original or a duplicate of the ME's certificate to prove that a driver is medical qualifications, as they can prove the date the certificate was issued by the ME.
