Download as PDF 7516 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 23 / Friday, February 3, 2023 / Notices lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 with a third response option (‘‘yes/no/ unsure’’), and to include a field for any clarifying comments. FMCSA Response FMCSA considered the NTSB’s comments but does not believe its recommendations would enhance the quality, usefulness, and clarity of the form based on the purpose for which the form was intended to be used. The ‘‘391.41 CMV Driver Medication Form, MCSA–5895,’’ was developed and intended to be used as a tool to supplement the information obtained from the ‘‘Medical Examination Report Form, MCSA–5875,’’ from the driver during the ME’s review of the driver’s health history, and from the physical examination conducted by the ME. The ‘‘Medical Examination Report Form, MCSA–5875,’’ already provides the ME with a complete health history for the driver including all current medications (prescriptions, non-prescriptions, supplements) and medical conditions as reported by the driver. The ‘‘391.41 CMV Driver Medication Form, MCSA–5895,’’ specifically addresses medication(s) that may impair the driver’s ability to safely operate a CMV so that the ME fully understands the reasons the medications have been prescribed and can consider the impact the medication(s) and medical conditions for which the medication(s) has been prescribed may have on the driver. This information combined with the information obtained from the ‘‘Medical Examination Report Form, MCSA–5875,’’ from the driver during the ME’s review of the driver’s health history, and from the physical examination conducted by the ME, is used by the ME when making a physical qualification determination. The ‘‘391.41 CMV Driver Medication Form, MCSA–5895,’’ contains information regarding the driver’s role and regulation in § 391.41(b)(12) as a reference for healthcare professionals and does not indicate that the healthcare professional must interpret the regulation. The ‘‘391.41 CMV Driver Medication Form, MCSA–5895,’’ clearly states what is and is not expected of the healthcare professional completing the form by requesting the healthcare professional review the regulation provided, complete the form, and return it to the ME. The form explains that the final determination as to whether the individual listed on the form is physically qualified to drive a CMV will be made by the certified ME. Question 4 was specifically intended to obtain the medical opinion of the healthcare professional completing the form regarding the specific medication(s) VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:51 Feb 02, 2023 Jkt 259001 they have prescribed to the driver for a particular medical condition(s). It is the responsibility of the ME to use the information provided by the healthcare professional completing the ‘‘391.41 CMV Driver Medication Form, MCSA– 5895,’’ as a tool to assist them in making a physical qualification determination.
