Medical review officer must resolve whether observed collection is justified

Situation

• Recollect is still live in shy-bladder timed-collection log for medical review officer in a DOT-covered motor carrier after a fatal crash.
• Shy-bladder timed-collection log is missing the fact medical review officer needs after a donor claiming the seal was already broken; stop this Forensic Drug Testing close.

Analysis required

• Test whether a broken seal, timing miss, or donor explanation changes observed collection is justified.
