If the physician determines that a medical condition condi- tion has, or with a high degree of probability, could have precluded the employee from providing an adequate amount of breath, the employee's ’s failure to provide an adequate amount of breath will not be deemed a refusal to take the test. If the physician is unable to make a determination that the employee employ- ee was medically unable to provide a sufficient amount of breath, the employee will be regarded as refusing to take the test. The BAT shall document any unusual behavior or appearance on the alcohol testing form.
