GHSA Provides Catastrophic Coverage
A reminder from the Georgia High School Association that the GHSA provides Catastrophic Accident Medical Coverage to participants at all member schools.
Coverage is provided for students participating in interscholastic competition (governed by the regulations of the state high school athletic/activities authority), including school- supervised practice, tryouts, pre- and post-game related activities including award banquets and covered travel, as defined under the policy.
All student athletes, student managers, student trainers, student cheerleaders and students participating in interscholastic competition are eligible.
The GHSA Catastrophic coverage includes medical, disability, rehabilitative and custodial benefits per the policy. The policy carries a $25,000 deductible for accident medical expenses.
Currently, the GHSA pays three-quarters of the policy premium for all member schools with the remainder coming from the school’s dues.
