Virtual Flight Surgeons To Make Discounted Services
Available
The NBAA has implemented a program to offer a 10-percent
discount on the Complete Aeromedical Services Program (CASP)
offered by Virtual Flight Surgeons, Inc.
A medical certificate is just as important as a pilot license,
and ensuring both are up-to-date should be a paramount concern for
pilots and flight department managers alike. NBAA partnered with
Virtual Flight Surgeons so that Members would have expert guidance
when it comes to their medical certificate and avoid situations
where health concerns or other problems could put the medical
certificate in jeopardy.
"The wrong way to deal with medical certification issues is to
try and figure it out by yourself," said Mike Nichols, NBAA vice
president of operations, education and economics. "The right way is
to work with a trusted professional who can guide you through the
process."
The CASP is a one-stop source for aeromedical advice and FAA
medical certification assistance. The program provides access to
comprehensive tools and services to ensure your medical certificate
is protected, including confidential e-mail and phone consultations
with a VFS physician, FAA waiver advocacy and case preparation, FAA
follow-up reporting and renewal submission, corporate flight
physiology and medical procedures/programs review and more.
"Virtual Flight Surgeons is proud of its association with NBAA
as both organizations share an unwavering commitment to aviation
safety, pilot career preservation and superior service to client
members," said Quay Snyder, MD, MSPH and Virtual Flight Surgeons,
Inc. president and CEO. "The unique expertise and experience of our
staff gained over years of serving the full spectrum of
professional aviation will add significant value to the already
stellar benefits provided by the NBAA to its member companies and
their pilots."
