| Abstract | This paper describes the results from a two-year review of the Conditions an AME Can Issue (CACI) monitoring safety assurance process. When an aviation medical examiner (AME) examines an airman during the medical certification process, there are conditions for which an AME must defer to Aerospace Medicine before the airman's certificate is issued. In 2013, the Office of Aerospace Medicine implemented changes for nine specific medical conditions to allow AMEs to process more applicants immediately following the examination. This process became known as Conditions an AME Can Issue (CACI). A review was needed to document the certification changes over time. |
