MedAire physicians are administering up to 600 cholesterol tests at Booth No. 1075 throughout the show. The tests take five minutes to process and are free to NBAA Convention attendees.

MedAire has administered the tests at the NBAA Convention for the past 18 years. “MedAire’s free cholesterol tests and NBAA have become synonymous,” said one NBAA 2007 attendee. “Every year I get my test results at their booth, and last year I fell into the borderline category. I credit MedAire for helping make me healthier because I have since lost 15 pounds and recently tested at 177.” A cholesterol level of 200 to 239 mg/dL is considered “borderline.” A level of 240 mg/dL or above is considered “high risk.” Recipients with “high risk” cholesterol levels will receive a free digital jump rope.
