Drug test result redaction is the removal of donor data from a testing record handled under DOT 49 CFR Part 40. The part sets how regulated tests are run and kept. anonym.plus marks each identifier on your device, so the outcome stays clear while the tested person is shielded.
When this applies
An MRO report names the donor, the specimen ID, and the result. You trim the identifiers Part 40 protects before a copy moves to an allowed recipient.
How anonym.plus handles it
- Open the result in anonym.plus on your device.
- Local OCR reads a scanned lab page.
- The tool flags the donor, the SSN, and contacts.
- Keep the specimen ID and the outcome line.
- Swap or black out the confirmed items.
- Save the clean copy locally.
What you need to provide
- The testing record (PDF, DOCX, or scan).
- An operator (Replace keeps the outcome readable).
- Optional allow-list for the specimen ID.

Limitations & cautions
Part 40 limits who may receive a result and when. The tool removes identifiers; it does not decide release rules. Confirm allowed recipients with your DER or MRO.
Frequently asked questions
Who may receive a DOT test result?
Part 40 restricts release to specific parties, such as the employer's DER. The tool flags identifiers; the release rule stays a compliance question.
Can I keep the specimen ID?
Yes. Allow-list it so the chain-of-custody reference stays while donor identifiers are removed.
Is the result uploaded?
No. The app runs locally with no cloud step, so donor data stays on your machine.
