FAA Private on basis of JAA - Medical Reqts

According to 61.75 an FAA Private can be issued on the basis of a CURRENT foreign licence provided the applicant has a current FAA medical or medical from the state that issued the foreign licence.

My question is (as I am currently living in the US), can I fly an N reg aircraft in the US with an FAA medical and FAA licence issued on the basis of a JAA/UK licence, without a JAA medical ie: is the JAA licence CURRENT without the JAA medical ? If this is so, then I assume I could keep my JAA licence current by doing a JAA bienniel with the instructor as P1 and not requiring a JAA/UK medical.

Thanks for your thoughts,

Mark...
