Another thread has me curious.
The scenario: A pilot has a disqualifying medical condition that is allowed with an SI but the pilot in question has omitted that disqualifying medical condition on several applications for a medical certificates. The pilot in question then seeks counsel from an AME regarding the situation.
Is the AME bound by Physician-patient Privilege to not disclose this information or as an AME are they required to report the information to the FAA?
