Reimbursement of Medicals??

No. Didn't know that existed. Thanks

Some medical plans pay for it as your annual physical. At every company I have worked work it is a requirement to be employed as a pilot and you are responsible for maintaining that requirement for employment.

Have you had success with that under your current plan? That would be a handy piece of information to have.

Health Insurance pays it for me.

Company, because of a quality CBA, pay for mine.

I thought I read that the FAA changed the medical durations. That a under 40 first class is now good for 12 months. Can anyone confirm these changes?

that is correct, however the day you turn 40 you have had a 1st in the last six months to exercise your ATP license. The third classs is good for five years up to 40. InFO4708

It varies from state to state.
In Oklahoma for instance:

The employer is responsible for any physicals related to employment.
So for those that get paid for the physical, it probably is not for the abundance of the warm and fuzzies from your employer.
