Under BasicMed, who signs off the comprehensive medical exam checklist?

• A. A physician
• B. The aircraft owner
• C. The pilot
• D. The instructor

Answer: (A)

Under BasicMed, the comprehensive medical examination checklist is completed during the physician’s exam and the physician signs it to certify that the exam was performed and that the pilot meets BasicMed requirements. The responsibility for validating the medical evaluation lies with the physician, not with the aircraft owner, the pilot, or the instructor.
