Assess whether a prescription legitimately explains the positive after a SAP

Situation

An MRO reviewing a prescription-explained positive cannot treat a SAP who closed the file before follow-up tests finished as color commentary on return-to-duty follow-up testing calendar. Custody-and-control specialist must close a prescription legitimately explains from that extract under Forensic Drug Testing / Collection and Custody.

Decision

Custody-and-control specialist in an MRO reviewing a prescription-explained positive must choose Accept the result / Reject on custody / Recollect / Hold using return-to-duty follow-up testing calendar after a SAP who closed the file before follow-up tests finished.

Hypotheses to test

• A SAP who closed the file before follow-up tests finished is noise around an already-controlled Collection and Custody process in an MRO reviewing a prescription-explained positive, given return-to-duty follow-up testing calendar.
• A SAP who closed the file before follow-up tests finished is the event in return-to-duty follow-up testing calendar that forces Accept the result for custody-and-control specialist under Forensic Drug Testing.
• Return-to-duty follow-up testing calendar shows a one-file miss after a SAP who closed the file before follow-up tests finished, not a Collection and Custody program failure.
• Return-to-duty follow-up testing calendar cannot decide a prescription legitimately explains yet after a SAP who closed the file before follow-up tests finished; hold is the only Forensic Drug Testing close an MRO reviewing a prescription-explained positive can defend.

Analysis required

• Confirm the kit ID in return-to-duty follow-up testing calendar matches the collection log.
• Check MRO notes and cutoffs against the protocol an MRO reviewing a prescription-explained positive claims to run.
• Walk chain of custody, collection site, and validity flags in return-to-duty follow-up testing calendar after a SAP who closed the file before follow-up tests finished.
• For this Forensic Drug Testing Collection and Custody file, read return-to-duty follow-up testing calendar against a SAP who closed the file before follow-up tests finished and write the one fact that would move a prescription legitimately explains for custody-and-control specialist.
