Title: Survey of Airman Satisfaction with Aeromedical Certification Services.
Form Numbers: N/A.
Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on the
following collection of information was published on March 14, 2022 (87 FR 49). No comments were
received. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), through the Office of Aerospace Medicine
(OAM), is responsible for the medical certification of pilots and certain other personnel under 14 CFR 67
to ensure they are medically qualified to operate aircraft and perform their duties safely. In the
accomplishment of this responsibility, OAM provides a number of services to pilots, and has established
goals for the performance of those services. This is a biennial survey designed to meet the requirement to
survey stakeholder satisfaction under Executive Order No. 12862, “Setting Customer Service Standards,”
and the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA).
The survey of Airman Satisfaction with Aeromedical Certification Services assesses airman
opinion of key dimensions of service quality. These dimensions, identified by the OMB Statistical Policy
Office in the 1993 “Resource Manual for Customer Surveys,” are courtesy, competence, reliability, and
communication. The survey also provides airmen with the opportunity to provide feedback on the
services and a medical certificate application tool they use. This information is used to inform
improvements in Aeromedical Certification Services.
The survey was initially deployed in 2004, and deployed again in 2006, 2008, 2012, 2014, 2016,
2019, and 2021 (OMB Control No. 2120–0707). Across collections, minor revisions have been made to
the survey items and response options to reflect changes in operational services and survey technology.
To reduce the burden on the individual respondent and potentially improve the response rate, this
information collection will be electronic.
Respondents: Approximately 4,300 Airmen.
Frequency: Biannually.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 15 minutes per respondent, 950 total burden hours.
