2014 Medical Form
TO:
FROM:
SUBJECT:
On behalf of our sports medicine staff, were glad to have you with us. Its our job to monitor your
health status. In order to do so effectively, weve attached a few forms that you need to complete.
As we explain the purpose of each form, well also discuss some very important information on
insurance coverage and health care delivery procedures. If you have any questions, please contact
your attending athletic trainer at 512-471-4916.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. UT Athletics Report of Medical History (See Form A): This report includes a questionnaire
designed to solicit information about your personal health history and that of your family. It
is very important for us to know if you or any immediate member of your family (parents,
grandparents, or siblings) has had a history of serious or prolonged illness. We also want to
know if you, specifically, have had a history of previous hospitalizations, surgeries, injuries,
or any other medical conditions that may warrant follow-up care. We request that you be as
thorough as you can when answering the questions. The information collected from the
questionnaire is used by medical providers to ascertain your immediate health status and
conduct a thorough physical examination.
2. Physical Examination (See Form B): In addition to answering questions about your
medical history prior to trying out, you must show proof of a physical examination,
completed in the past 6 months. It is your responsibility to identify a physician who can
conduct your physical examination and complete the form accordingly. Please note that the
medical history and physical exam forms must be reviewed and signed by a physician. If the
physical exam is being performed by a Physicians Assistant (PA) or Nurse Practitioner (NP),
please have all forms co-signed by their supervising physician. We will not accept physical
examination forms without a physicians signature (MD or DO).
3. Express Assumption of Risk/Release and Indemnification Agreement (See Form C): Our
University attorneys require proof that we have informed you in writing that your
participation constitutes an assumption of risk because of the nature of the activity. By
signing this form, you acknowledge that injury is an inherent risk in your activity. This is a
risk that you accept voluntarily, and therefore, will not hold the UT Departments of
Intercollegiate Athletics responsible if you get hurt as a direct result of participation. Note,
there are adult (18 years of age or older) and minor (under 18 years of age requiring your
parents/guardians signature) versions of this form. Choose the appropriate form for your
age. Also, if you are under 18 years of age, your parents/guardians will be required to sign a
form entitled Consent for Treatment of a Minor (See Form D).
4. Authorization to Release Medical Information: If you report for try-outs with a pre-existing
injury or medical condition, you can anticipate that we will request documentation from your
home-based medical providers. Included in this packet is a form that will require your
signature for the release of this information (See Medical Records Release, Providers
Form E).
Required Forms, Medical Procedures page 2
Additionally, if you are ever injured during participation, your care will be provided by the
medical staff of UTs Division of Athletic Training/Sports Medicine. The coaches, program
supervisors, and professional staff; inclusive of athletic trainers, team physicians,
administrative employees, and volunteers, must use and disclose your medical information to
the extent necessary to provide you with quality medical care. In order to do so, we must
follow HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) Privacy Practices
required by the law to share your medical information as necessary for treatment, payment,
and health care operations. These privacy practices dictate how your medical information
may be used and disclosed, and how you can get access to this information (See HIPAA
Privacy Notice/Acknowledgment of Receipt Document/Form F).
The Division of Athletic Training/Sports Medicine has policies and procedures in place to
safeguard the privacy of your medical records and protect you from unnecessary disclosure of
your personal health information (PHI). In an athletics setting, there are many parties
including coaches and athletics staff and parent/guardians who can potentially have access to
your PHI, especially in injury situations. Your signature on the appropriate forms permits us
to share this information according to your disclosure preferences (See PHI Forms G1G5).
You have the right to restrict disclosure of your PHI to any of the aforementioned parties by
refusing to sign the appropriate authorization forms. If you choose to do so, you must write,
REFUSED TO AUTHORIZE on the form and include your signature and date for
validity purposes. Also, you have the right to revoke any of your signed authorizations.
Even though you have signed authorizations permitting us to share your personally
identifiable health information, it is imperative to note that we are not obligated to do so. In
accordance with the HIPAA Privacy Standards, we will respect the privacy of your health
information by releasing only the minimum information necessary to protect your health and
safety, and we will strive to do everything necessary to ensure the confidentiality of your
medical records.
5. Insurance Coverage Specifics (Form H): The Intercollegiate Athletics Department cannot
assume financial responsibility if you are injured during the tryout period. Therefore, we are
requesting that you indicate the type of insurance coverage that you possess or that is
maintained for you by your parents/guardians. Your signature, required on this form,
acknowledges that you fully understand the extent of our medical and financial responsibility
if you are injured or become ill during the try out period. You will not be cleared for
participation if you do not have insurance coverage and provide all the information requested.
Insurance Questionnaire (Form H1)/Authorization to Release Insurance Data (Form H2:)
Texas state law requires that you authorize the release, by UT Athletics, of any insurance
information about you. In the event that you are injured, we need to provide this information
to attending physicians and other medical providers who are administering care.
If you do not have insurance at this time, we have provided you with options for coverage.
See Document I Insurance Resource list.
Return the medical paperwork with the rest of your try-out packet to the address below no
later than seven (7) days prior to your scheduled try-out date. You should retain a copy of
your packet in its entirety for your files.

The University of Texas at Austins Departments of Intercollegiate Athletics is concerned about the health and
well-being of its prospective student-athletes/participants. However, the health status and physiological
capabilities of individuals who are not recruited student-athletes/participants at the time of team/activity tryouts
are not known to the Universitys athletics personnel or sports medicine providers. Therefore, it is necessary for
any individual desiring to tryout for an intercollegiate athletics team/activity to certify that he/she is in adequate
physical condition to undergo such tryouts, and to release the state of Texas, Intercollegiate Athletics, the
athletic team and all of their respective members, officers, employees, and agents (hereinafter referred to as The
University of Texas) from any liability for not providing proof of medical examinations, athletic trainers
examinations, or physical fitness assessments prior to the tryout.
I, the above named participant, am eighteen years of age or older am fully competent to sign this agreement.
I realize that my participation in the aforementioned sport/activity carries with it risk of injury/illness, even
when all rules are followed and conditions are optimal. There are various safety problems that can increase
injury risk potential. Some safety problems are regularly identified and addressed (i.e., heat illness and the
administration of liquids frequently during practices; collisions and the use of high quality, durable, and safe
protective equipment). Other safety problems may be less clearly identified (i.e., mechanisms of head and neck
injuries or ankle and knee injuries) and, therefore, prevention and protection are difficult. Risk can be increased
due to the participants lack of compliance with specified instructions (i.e., using improper footwear, knowingly
using dangerous or faulty equipment, training when environmental conditions are dangerous (high heat/high
humidity, lighting), and engaging in high intensity or high volume training without adequate fitness or
conditioning. Even in the best facilities, with adequate supervision, use of all protective equipment, and
compliance with all of the rules, there remains an inherent risk of injury/illness as a result of my participation,
and this risk is increased even more so with contact sports/activities.
I acknowledge that my voluntary participation may expose me to hazards or risks that may result in my personal
injury/illness or death. I acknowledge that I am aware of the risks of injury/illness and knowledgeable
concerning rules, equipment and safety practices being employed by UT athletics personnel to minimize my risk
of sustaining an injury/illness as a result of participation. I agree to use all required protective equipment and
follow all rules and instructions from University officials regarding my safety. Also, I have no known physical
infirmities which could be worsened or aggravated by my participation and I declare myself physically fit and in
good medical condition to engage in all athletics activities.
In consideration for The University granting me permission to engage in said tryout, and therefore foregoing its
right to prevent me from participating in said tryout, I hereby release The University of Texas at Austin, its
Board of Regents, Officers, Employees, and Representatives from any and all liability, claims, costs or expenses
resulting from any and all injuries (including death) or infirmities that may result in the course of my
participation/tryout. I understand that The University of Texas at Austin and all its insurers will not be
responsible for any of my medical expenses, pain and suffering, present or future lost wages or diminished
earning capacity, or any other damages that may arise from any injury or infirmity that may result in the course
of my participation/tryout. I further agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Institution and its governing
board, officers, employees, and representatives from liability for the injury or death of any person(s) and

insurance questionnaire enclosed in this packet indicating the specifics of my coverage. I understand the
following: (1) it is my responsibility to maintain insurance coverage during the length of the try out and, if I am
added to the team, during the length of my participation; (2) I am to apprise appropriate UT sports medicine
personnel (Lisa Sova, Insurance Coordinator, 512-471-7569) of any changes in my coverage. If I fail to do so, I
will be responsible for medical expenses from any injuries/illnesses incurred from the date that the insurance
lapses; and, (3) I may be subject to suspension from participation until I obtain insurance from another source.
I also understand that my insurance plan must provide coverage for sports related medical conditions. It is my
responsibility to determine if my insurance plan meets this requirement. If it does not, I acknowledge that I
have been given a list of insurance plans from UT sports medicine personnel that do meet the criteria. I further
understand that the list only serves as a resource for purchasing an individual medical policy and that the
Department of Intercollegiate Athletics does not have any affiliation or arrangement with any insurance
company or its independent agents.
I am signing this agreement voluntarily and with complete understanding of the terms and conditions contained
herein.

Form I
The University of Texas at Austin Intercollegiate Athletics Department requires that you have medical
insurance coverage prior to participation with your respective team. It is your responsibility to ensure
that the appropriate coverage is obtained and maintained during the length of your participation. The
University of Texas at Austin offers a student medical insurance plan through United Healthcare that
can be acquired through the University Health Services. However, this plan is NOT a viable option as it
excludes medical treatment related to any injuries sustained while participating in intercollegiate
athletics. The insurance plan that you acquire must meet one important requirement that it covers you
for all injuries sustained during participation in your activity.
The list below of insurance plans meets this requirement and serves only as a resource for purchasing an
individual medical policy. The University of Texas at Austin Athletics Departments does not have any
affiliation or arrangement with any insurance company or its independent agents.
