I recently became yet another FAA BasicMed success story, having taken care of it on 9-12-17. Super happy that my doc agreed to participate, and that he understands the intent and has no problems with it.
However, a curious thing happened a couple of weeks ago, when I listened to a message on my answering machine with some sweet sounding young female voice stating that it was the FAA calling to verify my address. has anyone else experienced this sort of thing after completing Basic Med? I'm just wondering if:
1. This was nothing but a total scam call (I never replied to it or called the number she left)
2. if my completion of Basic Med somehow triggered this event from the FAA, because they now need to reflect that I am on Basic Med and not a standard Class 3 Medical anymore. The problem is, if that is the case, why would they want to "verify my address, and not my medical status change?"
Just curious if anyone has experienced this as well after obtaining a BasicMed privileges.
