Indiana CDL Requirements

All Indiana CDL holders are required to be medically qualified to drive a CMV by the means of a valid DOT medical certificate.

  • Non-Excepted Interstate 
    You must meet the Federal DOT medical certificate requirements.
  • Non-Excepted Intrastate 
    You must meet the Indiana state medical certificate requirements and endorsements.

 

CDL Self-Certification

The self-certification process requires you to certify to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles the type of commercial motor vehicle you operate, or intend to operate, as well as acknowledge that you are required to meet the medical requirements for that CDL.

Do a Self Certification online.

  • You will need to create a “myBMV” account, if you do not already have one.
  • You do not need to submit your medical certificate when you self certify. This information is already on file from when you where issued your CDL.
    You may use the automated system to verify that your medical certificate is on file by calling 888-692-6841, option number one (1).

 

Medical Certificate Renewal

To keep your CDL valid, you are required to keep a valid medical card on file with Indiana BMV. Submit the completed Medical Examination Form (long form) and the Medical Examiner’s Certificate:

Special Information Updates Pertaining To ALL STATES

MEDICAL EXAMINERS MUST CONTINUE TO ISSUE MEDICAL CERTIFICATES TO ALL DRIVERS

The FMCSA has requested that all medical examiners continue providing drivers with a paper copy of the Medical Examiner’s Certificate – Form MCSA-5876, so that Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) holders can provide a copy to the State licensing agency, and the non-CDL drivers can provide the documentation to their employers and Federal and State enforcement officials.

The Agency is currently completing efforts to put into place an electronic system to enable medical examiners to transmit the medical certificate information from the National Registry system to the State licensing agencies. However, until that system is completed, medical examiners must continue to issue paper copies of the medical certificates to drivers who pass the medical exam.

ALL DRIVERS MUST CONTINUE TO CARRY A PAPER COPY OF THEIR MEDICAL CERTIFICATE

Commercial Drivers – You still need to carry a paper copy of your medical card, until FMCSA announces that this is no longer necessary.

    I moved from Florida and was working for county government. All government agencies are exempt from the physical requirement in Florida. Planning on doing government roadwork here and was wondering if Indiana requires physicals for government class A drivers?

    I fell in December of 2018 and suffered head trauma. In March of 2019 had a seizure due to the head injury. I’ve been on medication and seizure free. The state of Indiana requires for you to be seizure free for one year. Well it’s been a year got my medical card took my Dr. release disclosed everything to the examiner. Took my card to the bmv got a call that I need an exemption form from FMCSA . So I call for the fifth time four were previously to make sure I didn’t need a document or anything. So the answer was no , tell them my problem so it gets passed on to the medical safety dept. I will receive a e-mail which I did saying since I’m intrastate I fall under state regulations. Federal has nothing to do with it. Well I take a copy of two separate e-mails saying it’s state regulations so they say feel a affidavit saying I’m a intrastate driver and that will clear up the confusion and I will receive a letter which I got saying I need a exemption form from FMCSA. I know it’s a friggin joke. So back to the bmv they call back to the cdl and say oh the problem is my vision test wasn’t filled out go to the examiner and bring it back. So yes I have my card with me show to young lady as she tells the lady I’m looking at it now it’s written in I can hear oh yeah I see it. Well now it’s wait on another letter with information as to what they need. Yes your right it’s going to say we need a exemption form from FMCSA. Someone help please.

      Check with your local DMV to determine the process you will need to go through to maintain your cdl. Once you are released, without restrictions or limitations, get a new medical card. Your local DMV should be able to guide you through the process. And your meds are temporary, so it is unlikely that they will be an issue, once you have been released to return to work.

      Check with your local DLD. You would fall under the states variances more so than FMCSA. If you need a medical card according to the state, then make sure the examiner understands your states laws and variances.

    I have a 12000 GVWR truck in Indiana and do not require DOT numbers because we only haul our own property within the state. Does Indiana require my drivers to get a DOT physical? The Federal gov’t says you need a DOT physical if you are a “commercial driver” involved in “interstate” commerce with GVWR over 10000lb.

      You’ll have to check with your local drivers license department. They may allow you, while you’re not driving, to change your self-certification to “intrastate excepted” so you don’t have to have a current medical card. Or they may have a period of time where you can downgrade your license, then reinstate your CDL again later. Only they can give you they details of how they can help you with their state process.

      Sounds like your driving category will now be considered “interstate” rather than “intrastate”.
      Interstate drivers fall under FMCSA regulations and need a federal medical card. You will also need to self-certify your driving category.
      Not sure what waiver you are talking about. But, if you need a waiver for medical qualification, then as an interstate driver you’ll need a Federal waiver.
      You should still be able to drive with a TN license, so talk again with the folks at TN drivers license department about self-certifying “interstate”.

Do they need to be drug and alcohol tested at the time of the physical also?

      Sounds like someone is over reading the FMCSA guidelines. Urine testing at the time of the examination is for proper kidney function only. There is no drug or alcohol testing, unless the company requests it. And TB testing before you even see the examiner or fill out paperwork has nothing to do with FMCSA guidelines. After an examiner sees and evaluates a driver, the examiner may ask for further testing, but before hand???? Look for another facility to do your testing if this is what you are getting right now.

    I am a vending route driver and drive a 26ft. box truck only in the state of Indiana. My company recently required me to take a DOT Physical. I am an Insulin Dependent Diabetic (Type II Diabetic). The physician who did my physical wrote temporarily disqualified on my physical form. She referred me to the FMCSA website and told me to apply for an Insulin Waiver. I read a paragraph on the website that said the FMCSA waiver/exemption does not apply to intrastate drivers. With that statement I then am confused of how to proceed with obtaining a DOT card. Does the state of Indiana offer a waiver program. If so where do I obtain the forms and information to apply for this waiver.

      You are an intra-state only driver and your drivers license department will steer you in the proper direction. The CME is doing a DOT physical for an interstate driver and is not taking into consideration your needs or requirements.

      You need to have the doctor explain the need and usage of this medication and how long they have been using suboxone. Have there been any ill effects or side effects on the driver? Then if the CME feels that the risk is extremely low or non existent, then he may issue a one year medical card. The driver will test positive on his DOT drug screens and will need to explain to the MRO what drugs he is taking and have a written prescription from the prescribing doctor to confirm the facts.

    My husband recently went in for his DOT physical. He is a type 2 diabetic and controls it with medication. He did not pass his physical because of quite a bit of sugar in his urine. According to his PCP one of his medications (farxiga) is the cause and the medication is doing what it is supposed to do. The doctor granted him a 3 month extension (his blood pressure was also high) and asked him to get blood work done because of his sugar. The doctor also stated he needed to see what his A1C was. Is it possible for him to get another extension and why does the doctor need to know what his A1C is?

      With the new medications that are being used with the treatment of diabetes, we have no way to confirm or deny that the sugar is under control without a recent A1C. That’s why the CME is requesting one. As far as another extension, you’ll need to check with the original CME on that.

      Best bet is to get your medical card renewed a few weeks before the old one expires. Then submit your information to your state DLD right away. Then you’ll always be sure you’re okay, rather than play Russian Roulette with your CDL.
      The processing time will differ from state to state depending how busy or backlogged their system is.
      The states also differ on their downgrading rules.
      You’ll have to check with your state drivers license department and even then you may not get a ‘days’ answer to your question.

    If a drivers DOT physical expires does his self certification or endorsement expire also. And if it does is there a fee for recertification?

    I heard that the state of Indiana requires CDL carriers to get their DOT physicals by a doctor only. They will not accept DOT physicals by nationally certified medical providers who are nurse practitioners, physician assistants or chiropractors as FMCSA allows. Is this true? If so, why does the state of Indiana have these professions on their certification listing for their state?

      You are correct. In Indiana, professionals in these categories are already certified and listed on the NRCME database.
      I would question the originator of this statement, rather than the state of Indiana.

      They may have received confusing information. It’s true that the state of Michigan does not certify DCs, although they do certify APN, DO, MD, NP, and PA.

        Your response is incorrect. I am an advanced practice nurse (NP) and have performed over 20,000 DOT physicals in the past 12 years. I am nationally board certified and am totally qualified to do these exams. Better check your facts sir.

          That’s exactly what we stated, that these professionals are certified to perform DOT physicals in Indiana.

    I have had a CDL for nearly 30 years now. I drive a straight truck within the state of Indiana. I take Tramadol for moderate osteoarthritis and have taken it for approximately 10 years. I understand that it’s classification is changing to a narcotic. Will this disqualify my CDL? If so is there a waiver that I can get?

      @Questioner
      As a driver driving intra-state only, I don’t believe you will have any problems. The change is mostly going to affect over the road drivers in 18 wheelers.
      I would just check with your state CDL/DMV and confirm that that is true for your state.

    We have a new driver and I would like to verify that his DOT medical card is valid. Do you have a online site that I can go to and verify this information. We are located in Rosemount Minnesota.
    Thank you,

      The best way to verify, is to call the doctor at the phone number on the driver’s medical card.
