TIPS FROM PIC

BASICMED HAS BEEN available for more

than three years, and more than 57,000
pilots have qualified. The online Medical
Self-Assessment Course is due every 24
months-here are some tips for renewing.
The renewal course is the same course
taken for the initial qualification (basic
medicalcourse.aopa.org). Renewal of
the course is required every 24 calendar
months, completed by the last day of the
month. The course allows renewal at any
time; however, the 24 months begins in
the month the course is completed. If it is
not renewed by the last day of the month
the course is due, do not act as PIC until
the course is renewed and the BasicMed
physical exam is valid. The course-specific
password may be reset on the Login page.
Upon completion of the course
and quiz, a new certificate will require
entry of the physician's information
who performed the physical exam. It is
handy to have the physical exam form,
Comprehensive Medical Examination
Checklist; this information is reused for
the new certificate.
On the certificate are nine statements
with check boxes. The first six must be
checked. The first three cause concern
because of the way they are worded. The
operative word in these statements is "if."
If you have the medical condition(s) or
if it develops in the future, you will be
treated by a specialist.
May 1, 2021, when the physical exams
will begin to be due for renewal, is not
far away. The CMEC must be renewed
by 48 months from the date of the previous exam; not calendar months.

AOPA Pilot Information Center by calling 800-USA-AOPA or email pilotassist@
