Bottom line
Background, drug, and ClearMD occupational health. Pricing is sales-quoted.
Stands out for: Screening plus occ-health (ClearMD) in one CRA family, which matters when drug and physicals sit beside the criminal package.
Watch out for: Quote-only. Office-only employers will over-buy occ-health they do not use.
Overview
Clearstar is background screening, drug testing, and ClearMD occupational health. Employers that have to run criminal, drug, and physicals in one process use it as a CRA, not as recruiting software.
Pricing is sales-quoted with no public per-check card and no advertised trial. Confirm ATS connectors on the sales call.
