CDL MEDICAL CERTIFICATION UPDATE
Starting June 23, 2025, all State Driver Licensing Agencies (SDLAs) must connect to the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners (NRCME). Medical examiners will enter certification information directly after each exam, making the process smoother and more efficient.
What’s changing for CDL Drivers:
- You’ll no longer need to self-certify your medical card with the SDLA, the system will handle it automatically.
- Carriers won’t need to verify that your examiner was listed on the NRCME at the time of the exam.
- Once your state’s system is active, your medical certification will appear on your Motor Vehicle Record (MVR).
- Reminder: A copy of your updated MVR must still be kept in your driver qualification file after each exam.
For Non-CDL Drivers:
- No changes—you must continue keeping a copy of your medical card in your qualification file.
CDL Drivers and carriers should keep an eye on their SDLA websites for specific transition dates and instructions. This update means an easier, faster process, and less paperwork for everyone!
