The student-athlete is responsible for reporting all injuries to the Athletic Trainer as soon as possible. The Athletic Staff will complete the necessary Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»­ injury report form. In the event of an emergency (due to an athletic injury in a formal, official game, practice, or travel) the athlete will be transported to the nearest, most appropriate hospital or medical facility.

The student-athlete will at no time seek outside medical attention for an athletic injury without prior consultation from the Athletic Department, Risk Management Department, or the attending physician in the case of an emergency.

In the case of HMO/PPO policies, the student athlete may be required to follow specific referral procedures. The University and the Athletic Department will not be responsible for any charges incurred if these procedures are not followed.

In order to expedite the processing of claims, it is recommended that athlete take a copy of the claim form with him/her to the provider. The Intercollegiate Sports Accident Claim Form must be completed in its entirety and signed by the Athletic Trainer in order to insure prompt handling.

Please be advised that Balance Due Statements are insufficient for the processing of claims. Such statements should have the appropriate medical forms (UB04, UB92, CMS1500, or HCFA1500) attached.

The Athletic Accident Insurance will cover injuries to the mouth and repair or replace sound natural teeth damaged or lost as a result of injury incurred while participating in an official practice or game.

Dental care not directly related to athletic injury will be the responsibility of the student-athlete.

The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, commonly referred to as the Clery Act, requires higher education institutions to collect, report and disseminate crime data to the campus community and U.S. Department of Education; to provide timely warnings of reported crimes that represent a threat to the safety of students or employees; and to make public their campus security policies. 

Jeanne Clery was a 19-year-old Lehigh University freshman when she was assaulted and murdered in her dorm room in April 1986. The "Clery Act" was enacted in the belief that crime awareness can prevent campus victimization. 

The Clery Act specifies that higher education institutions disclose statistics for incidents that are reported to a campus security authority or local police that take place on campus, in or on noncampus buildings or property, or on public property within or immediately adjacent to and accessible from campus. The Act mandates that institutions disclose three categories of crime statistics: 

1. Types of offenses: criminal homicide; forcible and non-forcible sex offenses; robbery; aggravated assault; burglary; motor vehicle theft; and arson; 
2. Hate crimes; and 
3. Arrests and referrals for disciplinary action
