L Lab Testing SolutionsDOT / Part 40

Employer / C/TPA explainer

DOT / 49 CFR Part 40

You stay the employer. We operate the testing program as a C/TPA-style service agent — order → collection → SAMHSA lab → MRO → report. Similar in role to a TPA. LTS is not eScreen.

Not legal advice. Under §40.11, the employer remains responsible even with a C/TPA.
