WHAT IS A SAP? WHAT DO THEY DO?
Substance Abuse Professionals (SAPs) are licensed or certified professionals that have knowledge not only of the diagnosis and treatment of alcohol and controlled substances related disorders, but also of DOT drug and alcohol testing and return-to-duty processes as required by §40.281.
A DOT-qualified SAP initially evaluates CDL drivers who have violated DOT drug and alcohol regulations and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up testing, and aftercare. Once the education and/or treatment is successfully completed, the SAP reassesses the driver’s condition and, if satisfied with the driver’s compliance, completes a SAP report and prescribes a series of follow-up tests covering a period of one to five years. Any motor carrier employing this driver during the prescribed period must complete the follow-up testing as specified by the SAP.
Your SAP Professional will conduct an assessment and determine your eligibility date-- if any classes are recommended they are only 25.00 and they are online.
If you are not able to obtain a follow up plan from your SAP you can request another evaluation from another SAP provider PER FMCSA -- they will allow for reassessment if you cannot reach your SAP
