In brief: The principals of all New York secondary schools were surveyed regarding medical coverage of interscholastic sports. The overall response rate was 65.3%, which represents approximately 90% of schools having varsity football teams. Results showed that the team physicians for most of the high schools are family practice physicians. Medical coverage at football games is often not provided directly by a physician, especially at the junior varsity and freshman levels. In addition, many schools do not record injury data, and only about half require either parental liability waivers or health insurance. One fourth of the high schools have been involved in litigation related to sports injuries in the past five years. The authors suggest several ways to correct these problems, measures that could apply to other states as well.
就校际体育赛事的医疗保险情况，对纽约所有中学的校长进行了调查。总体回复率为65.3%，这大约代表了拥有校际橄榄球队学校的90%。结果显示，大多数高中的队医是家庭医生。橄榄球比赛的医疗保障通常并非由医生直接提供，尤其是在初中校队和新生队层面。此外，许多学校不记录受伤数据，只有约一半的学校要求家长签署责任豁免书或购买医疗保险。在过去五年中，四分之一的高中卷入了与运动损伤相关的诉讼。作者提出了几种纠正这些问题的方法，这些措施也可应用于其他州。
