City of Santa Ana Response to Request for Updated Scope of Work ! 5/31/18 <br />report is submitted documenting the specific justifications for the disqualification and informing the City <br />of the requirement of a consideration of Reasonable Accommodation (a process in which we encourage <br />the City to involve us). Periodic performance reports, addressing both clinic turnaround statistics and <br />EXAMQA results, are available upon request. <br />Details regarding Occu-Med's qualification recommendations are as follows: <br />Occu-Med's Qualification Recommendations and Reports <br />Medically Qualified — Applicant is an immediate safe placement. <br />Conditionally Qualified - Applicant may be placed immediately but has work restrictions or <br />accommodation as outlined on the medical restrictions and/or reasonable accommodations page of the <br />report. The specific restrictions or accommodations are always included as part of the Conditionally <br />Qualified Medical Exam Summary Report. <br />Recommendation Delayed for Qualification — Applicant will be required to submit further information <br />regarding one or more medical conditions before being placed. This process is facilitated by Occu-Med <br />via RDQA. The applicant is contacted on the day that he/she becomes delayed and informed that he or <br />she has 10 business days to complete the request for additional medical information (extensions of the <br />timeframe can be granted at the City's discretion). <br />Medically Disqualified — Applicant has been deemed medically unsuited for this job class and will not be <br />1p aced. Occu-Med's report outlining relevant issues will be attached. The City must consider Reasonable <br />Accommodation for this Medical Disqualification and must determine whether such an accommodation is <br />feasible. <br />Recommendation Delayed for Qualification — RDQA <br />The RDQA process is one of the most elegant and sophisticated services associated with the Occu-Med <br />Program. <br />When the Occu-Med recommendation is that a decision be delayed until certain medical information can <br />be further explored (that is, when the applicant is classified as "Recommendation Delayed for <br />Qualification"—or "RDQ"—under Occu-Med terminology), Occu-Med will submit that report as well as <br />an additional report when the requested additional information is received and Occu-Med is able to offer a <br />conclusive placement recommendation. Since the law permits making "further medical inquiry" into <br />medical conditions that could pose a direct threat of injury from the performance of the job's essential <br />7 1 Occu-Med <br />25L-17 <br />
