Disqualified for not divulging latest medical history

Here in lies the problem nowadays. They are keeping a data bank on your medical records so it pays to be honest. I would go take another dot examination and take it from there.

 

You can’t do that, just tell the truth.

 

It ain't 1972 anymore. You must answer all questions honestly. What is the medical condition that disqualified you. May or may not be a disqualifier if it is treatable. BP, Apnea, Type 2 Diabetes, Vision, Hearing etc. are all treatable to an extent.

 

If it's your very first dot exam, then there shouldn't be any previous records of you in the database. You could find a random office and tell them you have no conditions. Now if they find something during their exam, then they'll put it on the paperwork and possibly not give you a 2yr card. All depends on what they find. If there's meds you're on and you don't want to disclose that, I wouldn't lie since you have to do a pee test. If you're on anti-psycho meds or something like that, they might find that in your pee and I wouldn't want to be caught lying. But as far as bodily issues, I'm thinking you can get away with not disclosing that info. It's not like any and all medical records ever created about you are magically available to any doctor that does a search for them.

 

There is a lot of bad information in this post.

 

My sister in law works in a medical office. The person came in for a regular visit she asked them questions concerning covid-19. Person answered no she put name in their system told the person you tested positive within 2 weeks why did you not say yes.Are they not keeping records sure are.

 

Well yeah, if you've taken a corona test that's all gonna be in a database. But say you broke your arm 5 yrs ago and have screws in there now and everything else. If you put no surgeries on your dot exam paperwork, it's not like the dot doc is gonna find out if you're lying or not.

 

There’s so much linking these days

 

A broken bone 5 years ago is not an issue.
