Sec. 339.303  Examination procedures.

    (a) When an agency orders or offers a medical examination under this 
subpart, it must inform the applicant or employee in writing of its 
reasons for doing so and the consequences of failure to cooperate. (A 
single notification is sufficient to cover a series of regularly 
recurring or periodic examinations ordered under this subpart.)
    (b) The agency designates the examining physician or other 
appropriate practitioner, but must offer the individual an opportunity 
to submit medical documentation from his or her personal physician or 
practitioner. The agency must review and consider all such documentation 
supplied by the individual's personal physician or practitioner.
