Who is responsible for filling out the new insulin form?

The treating clinician is responsible for filling out the new insulin form. This is because the treating clinician is often the healthcare professional with the most comprehensive understanding of the patient's medical history, current health status, and specific requirements regarding insulin therapy. They are in the best position to assess the patient’s level of control over their diabetes and the implications of their condition for commercial driving.

Moreover, the treating clinician will have the necessary information to complete the form accurately, including details about the patient's insulin regimen, blood glucose monitoring, and any complications associated with diabetes that may affect driving safety. This documentation is vital for ensuring compliance with FMCSA regulations and determining the patient's fitness for duty as a commercial driver. Thus, the responsibility lies squarely with the treating clinician to ensure that all relevant medical information is conveyed accurately on the form.
