Random Selection Service Definition
Last Updated: 07/05/2026

The Med-Stop Random Selection Service allows your company to organize and conduct random selection and testing procedures according to Department of Transportation rules and any company-specific requirements.

The service is integrated into the Med-Stop for Employers web application. It helps reduce manual work and keeps random selection information organized in one place.

Your company random pools can be maintained automatically, avoiding duplicate employee and pool member lists. The computer-controlled random selection process supports DOT requirements and can be customized to your company’s needs. Daily statistics and reporting help you monitor selection targets. From random pool management and selection to test request and notification, all information is securely stored and managed by Med-Stop for Employers.

The Med-Stop Random Selection service is free and can be activated at any time from your Med-Stop for Employers web application.

Random Testing

Random testing is the scientific method of selecting one or more individuals for substance abuse and alcohol testing based on matching the individual’s identification number, such as a Social Security number or payroll number, to a random number generator or table.

DOT employers who meet the requirements of 49 CFR Part 382 and non-DOT employers who want to promote a drug-free work environment can use random testing. Because random tests are unannounced and typically spread throughout the calendar year, they help establish and maintain a safe, drug-free, and alcohol-free work environment.

Med-Stop Random Selection Service

Once implemented, the service performs required functions automatically and provides selections according to regulations. It helps reduce duplicate employee lists, manual random pool maintenance, and faxing of new employee records to a TPA or consortium. Med-Stop automatically controls the average number of random pool members, shows the current and expected percentage of compliance, and provides reporting for auditors.
