You Might Be Eligible to Perform DOT Exams. Are You Letting That Revenue Walk Out the Door?

Why now is the time to get NRCME certified and stop leaving money on the table
If you're a licensed healthcare provider—MD, DO, NP, PA, or DC—there’s a good chance you’re already eligible to become a Certified Medical Examiner (CME) for the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).
But if you’re not yet certified, here’s the tough truth: You’re leaving patient volume and revenue on the table.
Why DOT Exams Matter More Than Ever
Every commercial motor vehicle (CMV) driver is required by law to undergo a DOT physical exam every 1–2 years. These exams are the gateway to their livelihood. And only certified medical examiners listed on the National Registry can legally perform them.
That means employers, trucking companies, school transport contractors, and independent drivers are actively searching for certified examiners in their area.
If you're not certified, you're invisible to that demand.
Who Can Become NRCME Certified?
You’re eligible if you are licensed, certified, or registered in the U.S. and authorized to perform physical exams under your state law. This includes:
- Medical Doctors (MDs)
- Doctors of Osteopathy (DOs)
- Nurse Practitioners (NPs)
- Physician Assistants (PAs)
- Doctors of Chiropractic (DCs) (state-dependent)
If you're already seeing patients and doing physicals, you likely qualify.
You’re Likely Missing Out on $1,000+ a Month
Let’s talk numbers. Most certified examiners charge $75–$150 per DOT physical, and the exam typically takes 20–30 minutes.
- Just 5 exams/week = $1,500–$3,000/month in added revenue
- No insurance billing. No chasing reimbursement.
- Many drivers are repeat patients every 1–2 years
It’s one of the few ways to generate clean, cash-pay income in modern practice, and the startup cost is low.
