Frequently Asked Questions

How long do drug test results take?

Negative urine drug tests typically come back the next business day, but in some cases can take longer. If the drug screening is not negative, further testing is required. Our lab will run a GC/MS confirmation test on all non-negatives, which provides an official, quantitative measurement of the level of drugs in the system. Confirmation testing takes approximately 3-5 days.

Who needs a DOT drug screen?

All transportation industry modalities require DOT drug screening for various purposes. For example, trucking companies must ensure safety-sensitive staff such as drivers are tested on a pre-employment and random basis, as well as for post-accident, reasonable suspicion, return-to-duty, and follow-up testing when indicated.

Who pays for the DOT Drug Test?

DOT regulations are silent about who is responsible for paying for drug testing. Typically, the company pays for pre-employment and random DOT drug tests, but not always. However, if a driver fails a test, smaller companies are much less likely to pay for a driver's return-to-duty and follow-up testing, putting the onus on the driver to pay for the tests.

Large fleets, on the other hand, often pay for all tests, including return-to-duty and follow-up testing, especially if the drivers are unionized.

Is return-to-duty testing required?

Return to duty tests are only required if a person has failed a test, sought out the counsel of a Substance Abuse Professional, and was subsequently cleared to return to duty by the SAP. DOT regulations require trucking firms to ensure that drivers who are subject to the return-to-duty and follow up testing are complying with those testing protocols, including passing all tests as outlined by the Substance Abuse Professional.

Who reviews the DOT drug test results?

DOT drug tests are reviewed by Medical Review Officers (MRO). An MRO signature is required on all valid DOT drug tests, whether positive or negative.

What information does Health Street need so I can send the driver for the test?

To schedule a drug test with Health Street, we will ask for the following information during the registration process:

About Our DOT Drug Test

Reasons for Drug Testing

DOT Drug and alcohol tests are administered under the federal authority of the agency overseeing the industry in which a company operates. DOT and its agencies define the reasons which prompt the need for tests. The opposite is also true. DOT drug tests cannot be administered unless it falls into one of the predefined categories. The following are reasons when DOT drug tests must be given:

Reviewing Drug Test Results

The result of a DOT Drug Test is reported in a secure PDF file which details the list of the tested drugs. For each class of drugs, there is an indication of positive or negative. If a drug comes back positive, the specific metabolite which tested positive will be indicated. The PDF file can be easily downloaded from our portal for printing or forwarding.

Excellent Health Street Communication

We were told by Health Street that we could go in for testing 10am-3pm. Get to lab corp for testing and we were told that they don’t do testing 11:30am to 1:30 pm. Very frustrating as we arrived at 11:32 am. Other than that, the communication from Health Street has been excellent.
