TIPS FROM PIC
Make your
medical
certificate
process
easier
PATRICK TIMMERMAN
CERTAIN MEDICAL CONDITIONS that
previously required FAA approval and
issuance of a special issuance, are now
considered a CACI. These CACI (pronounced
khaki)-Conditions AMEs
Can Issue-are a group of low-risk medical
conditions that, with your treating
physicians monitoring, can be approved
by an aviation medical examiner.
Currently 20 health conditions -
including certain cancers, heart
conditions, specific cardiac conditions,
and others- can qualify for a CACI.
The FAA has created CACI worksheets
that list the criteria for each
condition. Pilots will be required
to provide a letter or current status
report from the pilot's physician that
addresses all items on the worksheet.
The AME will compare this letter to
the CACI worksheet and determine if
the pilot is eligible. If so, the AME can
issue a medical certificate.
For the AME to make this determination,
the letter from the pilot's
treating physician must have all items
listed on the CACI worksheet. It must
be on the physician's letterhead with
the physician's signature and include
the pilot's name and date of birth.
Providing a copy of the pilot's medical
record is not enough.
To learn more and view the CACI
listings and requirements, visit the
Guide for Aviation Medical Examiners
on the FAA website, under " CACI
Certification Worksheets. "
