Section VIII: Demonstration of Physical Ability
1. If the medical practitioner doubts the applicant's ability to meet the guidelines contained within this table, and for all applicants with a Body Mass index (BMI) of 40.0 or higher, the
practitioner shall require that the applicant demonstrate the ability to meet the guidelines. This does not mean, for example, that the applicant must actually don an exposure suit,
pull an uncharged 1.5 inch diameter 50' fire hose with nozzle to full extension, or lift a charged 1.5 inch diameter fire hose to firefighting position. Rather, the medical practitioner may
utilize alternative measures to satisfy himself or herself that the applicant possesses the ability to meet the guidelines in the third column. A description of the methods utilized by
the medical practitioner should be reported in the Comments section provided below.
2. All practical demonstrations, if required, should be performed by the applicant without assistance. Any prosthesis normally worn by the applicant, and any other aid devices, may
be used by the applicant in all practical demonstrations except when the use of such items would prevent the proper wearing of mandated personal protection equipment (PPE).
3. If the medical practitioner is unable to conduct the practical demonstration, the applicant should be referred to a competent evaluator of physical ability. The Coast Guard
recognizes that all medical practitioners may not have the equipment necessary to test all of the tasks as listed. Equivalent alternate testing methodologies may be used. For
further information, check the Medical and Physical Evaluation Guidelines for Merchant Mariner Credentials (http://www.uscg.mil/nmc/medical.asp).
4. If the applicant is unable to perform any of the following functions, the medical practitioner should provide information on the degree or the severity of the
applicant's inability to meet the standards. The results of any practical demonstration or attendant physical evaluation should be recorded in the Comments section provided below.

(1-888-427-5662)
Who must submit this form?
Applicants seeking an original, renewal, or raise-in-grade credential are required to complete this form and submit it to the U.S. Coast Guard. Applicants seeking a raise-ingrade are required to submit this form if a previous medical evaluation has not been submitted within the last 3 years. Guidance for required submission of this form can be
found at the National Maritime Center website (http://www.uscg.mil/nmc/medical.asp).
Instructions for Applicants
Applicants are required to complete the Applicant Information in Section I, Medications in Section III, and Medical Conditions in Section IV.
Applicants are required to sign and date the certification in Section I of this form attesting, subject to criminal prosecution under 18 USC § 1001, that all information reported is
true and correct to the best of their knowledge and that they have not knowingly omitted or falsified any material information relevant to this form.
Applicants should also complete the release in Section II of this form.
General Instructions for Medical Practitioner
1. The Coast Guard requires a physical examination and certification to be completed to ensure that mariners:
● Are of sound health
● Have no physical limitations that would hinder or prevent performance of duties (see below)
● Are free from any medical conditions that pose a risk of sudden incapacitation, which would affect operating, or working on vessels
2. The medical practitioner must ensure a complete history and physical are conducted and make recommendations as to the fitness of the applicant. Final approval of the
mariner's status rests with the U.S. Coast Guard.
3. All examinations, tests, and demonstrations must be performed, witnessed, or reviewed by a physician (Medical Doctor [MD], or Doctor of Osteopathy [DO]), or nurse
practitioner, or a certified physician assistant licensed by a state in the U.S., a U.S. possession, or a U.S. territory. The medical practitioner who performed the examination
must verify Sections III and IV, and complete Sections V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, and X of this form.
4. Verification of medications in Section III of this form includes questioning the applicant about any medications or other substances reported, reviewing relevant medical
conditions to determine if the applicant has omitted any medications or other substances, and affirmatively reporting any omitted current medications or other substances
where required.
5. Applicants must report their relevant medical conditions to the best of their knowledge, and the medical practitioner must verify the medical conditions. Check "YES" if the
applicant has had a previous diagnosis or treatment of the condition by a health care provider, or if the applicant is currently under treatment or observation for the
condition, or if the condition is present regardless of treatment.
If the medical practitioner, or any other health care provider to the satisfaction of the medical practitioner, discovers a condition not reported by the applicant, he/she must
check "YES" in the appropriate block and explain in the remarks.
The medical practitioner must address all reported conditions in this section. This detailed explanation should include, at a minimum, identification of the
condition, approximate date of diagnosis, any limitations, whether the condition is controlled, the prognosis, the treatment, and any additional information as appropriate,
referring to the evaluation data listed at the National Maritime Center website (http://www.uscg.mil/nmc/medical.asp).
Additional sheets may be added by the applicant and/or the medical practitioner if needed to complete this section of the form. (Include applicant's name and DOB on
each additional sheet.)
Supporting medical documentation and testing for all identified conditions potentially requiring further review should be submitted with each application as per the
guidelines found on the NMC website (http://www.uscg.mil/nmc/medical.asp).
Detailed guidelines on medical conditions subject to further review can be found on the NMC website. Medical practitioners should be familiar with the guidelines
contained within this document. Medical and Physical Evaluation Guidelines for Merchant Mariner Credentials can be downloaded from the NMC website
(http://www.uscg.mil/nmc/medical.asp) or by calling the NMC at 1-888-IASKNMC (1-888-427-5662).
6. Mariners, including first class pilots and those individuals "serving as" pilots (as well as Great Lakes pilots) who are required to submit annual physical examinations to
the Coast Guard, may be issued a letter by the NMC specifying the extent of the evaluation data, if any, that should be submitted to the Coast Guard for any medical
conditions that have been previously reported to, and evaluated by, the NMC.
7. The medical practitioner is not required to perform or witness every examination, test, or demonstration. These may be referred to other qualified practitioners such as
audiologists or optometrists; however, they must be reviewed to the satisfaction of the medical practitioner. Page 6 of this form contains a certification that the
general medical examination, vision and hearing tests, as well as the physical demonstration of competence as appropriate, have been performed to the satisfaction of the
medical practitioner. The medical practitioner must sign and date the certification where indicated. This signature attests, subject to criminal prosecution under
18 USC § 1001, that all information reported by the medical practitioner is true and correct to the best of his/her knowledge and that the medical practitioner has not
knowingly omitted or falsified any material information relevant to this form.
8. If the medical practitioner is unable to determine the applicant's physical ability, the applicant should be referred to another health care provider who can properly evaluate
and test physical abilities.

laboratory testing unless it is deemed clinically necessary. Applicants and currently employed food workers should report information about their health as it relates to
diseases that are transmissable through food. The following issues should be considered by the medical practitioner when certifying an applicant:

Shiga-toxin-producing Escherichia coli, Hepatitis A virus, etc. This would include outbreaks associated with events such as a family meal, church supper, or festival
because the food employee ate food implicated in the outbreak, or ate food at the event prepared by a person who is infected or who is suspected of being a shedder of
the infectious agent.
