Athletic Department Policies
Student-athletes are required to have a primary insurance policy. Student-athletes will not be
able to participate in any team athletic related function until the Athletic department has a copy of their
insurance card on file.
Student-athletes will use their own personal insurance with all claims (personal policy
limitations vary by insurance company). The primary insurance is usually a group health plan carried by a parent’s/guardian’s workplace. It is your responsibility to ensure that all bills are filed through that
primary insurance. We will assist with this task if requested.
AASU carries a secondary policy on each student-athlete through Bob McCloskey Insurance.
This policy AASUres secondary coverage for injuries to athletes while participating in “intercollegiate sports.”
In order for the secondary coverage to apply, the athletic training staff must arrange any medical care
used by the athlete. Once the primary insurance benefits are exhausted, the student athlete must obtain an
Explanation of Benefits (EOB) form from their insurance company and deliver it to the athletic training staff.
Each student-athlete has a $2,000.00 disappearing deductible, which is met through payments by the
student-athlete’s primary insurance and out-of-pocket payments made by the parent/guardian. It is possible that you may left with a bill up to $2,000 because your bills did not meet our secondary deductible.
Cases that will not be covered by secondary insurance:
-off-season injuries
-self-referrals to outside physicians
-accidents
-illnesses
-pre-existing conditions not related to a supervised practice or intercollegiate sport
4. Student-athletes are responsible for the purchase of medication (OTC or prescription) either
through their primary insurance or out-of-pocket. In extreme cases of need, you son/daughter should
communicate with his/her coach, the athletic director, and athletic trainer for other options.
PARENTS YOU MAY KEEP THIS PAGE FOR YOUR RECORDS
Armstrong Atlantic State University Athletic Medical Insurance Policy
The Armstrong Savannah State University Athletic Department utilizes a secondary athletic medical insurance policy. Any intercollegiate student-athlete who sustains an athletic-related injury or illness will have medical claims filed with their parents/guardians private health insurance as the primary insurance provider.
Once the primary insurance benefits are exhausted, the student athlete must obtain an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) form from their insurance company and deliver it to the athletic training staff. The athletic departments’ secondary insurance may be responsible for those remaining expenses not covered by the primary insurance company if all procedures are followed precisely and in a timely manner. It must be noted that each student athlete has a $2,000 deductible with the secondary insurance provider. You may be left with a bill (up to $2,000) if you do not meet the secondary insurance deductible.
It should be noted that the athletic department may only cover injuries sustained during Armstrong Atlantic State University Intercollegiate Athletics supervised/authorized practices or games. Also, if a student athlete insurance carrier drops them, it’s the student athlete’s responsibility to notify the sports medicine staff immediately and options for new primary insurance can be determined. If this is not done and the student athlete is injured, AASU will not be responsible for medical bills sustained at time of injury.
Additionally, the secondary insurance will only be filed when the student-athlete reports the injury to one of the AASU athletic trainers, is evaluated by the athletic trainer, and is referred by the athletic trainer. Any other circumstances under which injuries may occur will be regarded as non-athletic in nature and are not the responsibility of Armstrong Atlantic State University Athletic Department, nor is it legal for the athletic department to AASUme such responsibility. The AASU Athletic Training Staff will arrange medical appointments for the student-athletes. The Armstrong Atlantic State University Athletic Department nor its insurers will be financially responsible for payment of unauthorized appointments.
The National Collegiate Athletic Association has established guidelines for athletic medical expenses, identifying what is permissible and non-permissible for the institution to pay.
Armstrong Atlantic State University Athletic Association may finance the following ATHLETIC MEDICAL expenses:
-Athletic Medical Insurance
-Death/dismemberment insurance for travel with intercollegiate athletics competition and practice
-Counseling expenses related to eating disorders
-Special individual expenses resulting from a permanent disability that precludes further athletic participation
-Expenses for medical treatment as a result of an athletically related injury.
-Medication and physical therapy utilized by a student-athlete during the academic year to enable them to participate in intercollegiate athletics
Armstrong Atlantic State University Athletic Association may not finance the following NON-ATHLETIC MEDICAL expenses:
-Student health insurance
-Medical, surgical, hospital or physical therapy expenses to treat non-athletic related illness or injury
-Medical, surgical, hospital or physical therapy expenses as the result of an injury going to or participating in class (e.g. physical education class)
-Routine dental or vision care
-AASU’s secondary health insurance policy DOES NOT cover prescription orthotics. Need for this medical device will be handled on a case by case basis.
-Purchase of medication (OTC or prescription)
If you should have any questions regarding the Armstrong Atlantic State University Athletic Medical Insurance Policy, please call Armstrong Atlantic State University Head Athletic Trainer at (912) 344-2866.
SECOND OPINION/REFERAL OUT POLICY
Second opinion physician visits, specialists, diagnostic testing and other services (chiropractic, podiatry, massage therapy, physical therapy, etc…) may only be covered by the Armstrong Atlantic State University Athletic Association if referred and approved by the AASU Team Physician and the AASU Athletic Training Staff. Any expenses incurred by the student-athlete without referral from an AASU athletic trainer or AASU Team Physician will be the sole financial responsibility of the student-athlete.
I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE ABOVE MEDICAL EXPENSE INFORMATION.

STATEMENT OF INSURANCE UNDERSTANDING
I ____________________________ have been informed and understand the limits of personal injury insurance carried on me by the Armstrong Atlantic State University Athletic Department.
I understand that it is required of me to provide proof of primary health insurance to the athletic department. The Athletic Department Policy will pick up payments after the $2000 disappearing deductible as been reached. The secondary policy does not cover pre-existing injuries, injuries sustained outside of athletic participation, and general illness. The secondary policy has a cap of $90,000.00 per injury. AASU is also a participant in the NCAA Catastrophic Athletics Injury Insurance Program, this applies for claims above $90,000 within two years of injury. At any time there is a change in my primary insurance I will notify the athletic department of any change that has taken place.
