Medical Review Officer (MRO)
A medical review officer (MRO) is a registered medical practitioner with both knowledge and understanding of drug and alcohol test results, allowing for their interpretation with consideration of substance use disorders and is accredited by the Australian Medical Review Officers Association (AMROA).
Prescription and over the counter drugs can cause non-negative results in screening, and need further laboratory testing and interpretation. Our medical staff will perform basic interpretation; however, an MRO review is best practice or may be required in some instances to accurately identify appropriate use of approved drugs.
The MRO will also be able to recommend follow-up recommendations as necessary, such as re-testing, retraining or coordination of a drug and alcohol intervention program.
