Cost of your FAA medical?
#32
On the serious tip, total cost - $13, 940.00. That includes:
3 HIMS evaluations
1 non-aviation forensic psychiatric eval
1 non-aviation psychiatric eval
1 non-aviation psychological eval
10 months of I.O.P.
4 months of an Aftercare Program
I'm ok with the cost & the timeline.
Believe it or not, I took my last and final HIMS eval back in January. Thought that the results of the evals were sent to the Medical Appeals office in DC, but they weren't. I was disappointed b/c the three of us (me, the HIMS neuro-psychologist and the HIMS psychiatrist) had discussed this just before the evals started. I also restated this upon completion of the evals and was assured that they would be sent. It's ok. I realize that I'm not their only client. Besides, timing is everything.
I will say this, medically certified or not, it's a win/win situation for me. If certified...cool. I'll pursue my passion. If not, what I've gained and gleaned from the process is immeasurable, invaluable and priceless. No certification could ever touch that!!!!

Just got my 1st class for $90 w/out EKG. It would have been $120 with EKG.
I went to Dr Ceja at JFK advanced medical. They are in building 75 and they will come pick you up from the terminal area and drop you off once you're done.
Overall good experience.
