Background Checks

Background check packages can be tailored to meet your requirements. Our trained account managers will work with you to set up the most cost-effective package for your specific needs.
All of our reports begin with a Results Summary. The summary lists each report component with the corresponding status. It’s a great way to see which items on the report need particular attention and whether there are any areas of concern regarding your applicant.

  Criminal Record Searches

  •   County Criminal Records

    Criminal court files at the state jurisdictional court (county court) are searched for felony and misdemeanor records. Viewpoint Screening conducts a criminal record search by name at the court(s) required by your customized background check. Each county court search will cover a history of seven (7) years from the date of request unless available otherwise or instructed otherwise by the client. Some reporting prohibitions on criminal records that antedated the report by seven years may apply. Detailed information on criminal records found will include, when made available by the court, but may not be limited to; date of offense, charges, plea, disposition and sentence. Open arrest warrants are also reported and generally include cases awaiting trial or charges for failure to appear.
  •   Statewide Criminal Records

    The Statewide Criminal Records search directly accesses a state's criminal records repository. The Statewide Criminal Records search covers most counties in a state and will provide felony and misdemeanor conviction information going back at least 7 years. The Statewide Criminal Records search is a cost-effective way to search for criminal records on an individual who has lived in several counties within a State. Not all states are available for Statewide Criminal Record searches.
  •   Federal Criminal Records

    Criminal court files at the United States Federal District Court are searched for felony and misdemeanor records. Criminal record searches are conducted on a nationwide level. Each federal conviction search will cover a history of seven (7) years from the date of request unless available otherwise or instructed otherwise by the client. Federal charges typically encompass severe crimes such as drug violations, illegal sale of firearms, embezzlement, and pornographic exploitation of children. Federal crimes do not appear in statewide or county criminal searches.
  •   Crime Database

    The Nationwide Database search is a search of a proprietary database containing over 200 million records from multiple jurisdiction-sources. Sources include state court repositories, departments of correction, county courts, and other state level agencies, as well as sex and violent offender records from all 50 states. This product is suggested to be used in conjunction with county criminal history reports.

    Please see the Nationwide Database Details for more information.
  •   Sexual Offender Registry

    A sexual offender index search reveals applicants convicted of sexual offenses. A sexual offender search is an integral part of the employment screening process and is essential for businesses whose employees deal with children, the elderly, or disabled individuals, or employees whose duties require them to enter a private residence.

    Sex offender data sources nationwide, such as: Bureaus of Investigation, Departments of Law Enforcement, Departments of Corrections, Departments of Justice, Departments of Public Safety, Sheriff’s Departments, State Attorney General’s Offices, and State Police.

    Please note that the Sex Offender Registry does not contain information on all convicted sex offenders. Some states provide information only for sex offenders with assessment scores of Intermediate or High.

  Database Searches

  •   Address History

    A powerful tool that provides information on individuals’ past addresses and movement patterns. The Address History establishes a starting point and allows for better management and a more complete background check by verifying and returning information on a person's: full name, age/date of birth, address, and dates at listed addresses.
  •   Social Security Validation

    Verifying the information provided by the candidate concerning his/her identity is the primary step in any background check. This aggregate database search reveals the connection between the candidate’s name and SSN based on history of use and will reveal the year and state of issuance of the subject’s SSN.
  •   Credit Report

    Individuals that are in extreme financial straits with debts that exceed income may be considered a potential risk in certain situations. Investigating an individual’s financial history and credit report background may be necessary to mitigate that risk when considering a candidate for a financial position. Viewpoint credit reports are obtained through a database search of one of the credit bureaus and report consumer credit activity covering a seven year period detailing overdue or slow account, charge off, collections, suits, tax liens, public records, judgments and bankruptcies.
  •   Motor Vehicle Records

    Driver History Reports are obtained from the state of issuance and typically cover a three, five, or seven year history depending on the state searched. Information reported includes accidents, suspensions, and violations. The state of Washington will only provide license verification. Clients requiring driver history from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation must complete and notarize a special one-time affidavit for the search.
  •   Terrorist Watch List

    The County Civil Record search identifies non-criminal lawsuits filed by or against an employee or company at the county level in either upper or lower courts, as determined by monetary value set by the state or county.

    Please see the Workers' Comp Records Details for more information.

  Verifications

  Healthcare Registries

  •   Fraud Abuse and Control Info System (FACIS)

    Because disciplinary actions and other sanctions are tracked and reported by numerous agencies or associations in each state, healthcare employers frequently struggle to determine what constitutes a reasonable search effort. The Fraud Abuse and Control Information System, known as FACIS, is a database information service that offers sanction histories on individuals and entities in the healthcare field. FACIS reports on disciplinary actions from exclusions and debarments to probation and letters of reprimand.

    The search includes information provided by Federal agencies as well as more than 800 licensing and certification agencies located in all 50 states. FACIS provides information on more than 50 types of healthcare professionals, from physicians and midwives to home health agencies and ambulatory services. The search also references OFAC, OIG, GSA, SDN and Blocked Persons List.
  •   OIG Exclusions List

Drug Testing

With over 14,000 collection sites nationwide, Viewpoint Screening provides the closest locations where the applicant, employee or student provides a sample. At the testing facility, a technician oversees collection and forwards the sample to the laboratory. Negative results are available within 24-48 hours. Viewpoint Screening conducts industry standard 5, 7, 9, 10 and expanded panel urine drug tests to detect the use of illegal drugs and commonly abused prescription drugs.

  Laboratory Testing

  •   Pre-employment Testing

    Viewpoint Screening has a network of over 18,000 collection sites to collect specimens. Samples are then shipped overnight to a nationally certified laboratory.
  •   Random Testing

    Well-designed random testing programs identify employees who are using drugs or misusing alcohol but are able to use the predictability of other testing methods to escape detection. More importantly, it is widely believed that random testing serves as a strong deterrent against employees beginning or continuing prohibited drug use and misuse of alcohol.

    We recommend spreading random testing dates reasonably throughout the year so as to not establish a predictable pattern. This prevents employees from coordinating their drug and alcohol use with the random testing schedule. Viewpoint Screening can provide a computer-generated random selection on a monthly or quarterly basis.

    Initially, your organization must determine the percentage or number of employees to be tested. If you employ workers who are mandated by the government to undergo random testing, you must meet the government's minimum standards for testing for those employees.

    At the beginning of your program, you will submit a master list of employees including their full name and social security number (or other unique employee identification number). Other identifiers may also be provided at your discretion, such as employee division/location, department, job title, etc. Every month or quarter thereafter, you will submit an update to Viewpoint Screening. The software utilizes a sequential numbering system to select the employees for the random list based upon the percentage requirements for your company. In accordance with federal guidelines, each employee will have the same chance of being selected each time a list is generated. This technique is called "random with replacement." There will be no maximum number of samples that any one individual will be required to provide during the testing schedule.
  •   Reasonable Cause and Post-Incident Testing

    Viewpoint Screening establishes a network of collection sites to collect specimens and blood or breath samples for alcohol testing.
  •   Medical Review Officer (MRO)

    Viewpoint Screening retains the services of a MRO, a licensed physician with a specialty in toxicology. They will attempt to consult with any donor that tests positive to determine if there is a medical condition or valid prescription that could result in the positive test.
  •   Substance Abuse and Contraband Policy

    Our extensive knowledge about the regulations governing drug and alcohol testing serves as an excellent resource when developing a drug and alcohol testing policy. Viewpoint will assist you in developing a policy which accurately reflects the philosophy and goals of your organization while complying with all federal, state and local regulations.

    Viewpoint will assist you in this policy creation by providing examples of generally accepted policies. Laws pertaining to workplace drug-testing in the United States are constantly in transition. Changes come from all levels of the courts as well as federal, state and local regulations.

    Viewpoint monitors these changes through its affiliation with industry-specific, professional organizations. Although we are not a substitute for competent legal counsel, we can provide assistance to companies relating to drug testing laws and regulations in the states in which it conducts business operations.
  •   Drug and Alcohol Test Reports

    Test Reports are available to you on your secure login page. Results can be bundled with background check results, or stored separately. Negative drug results are typically available within 24 hours of receipt at the laboratory. An exception would be a test that detects a substance at the cut off level, but is confirmed by gc/ms to be negative.

    All results and invoices are sent to Viewpoint Screening. Our clients receive one invoice for all services rendered.

"Very, very helpful! It is so nice to not have to wait for answers and be able to talk to someone right away to get issues resolved. Love the chat option. The person that helped me was very informative and very nice. I appreciate at that since i'm trying to learn a new site and new training and as a student, this service is priceless! Thanks for having it available. I really appreciate it!"
