Players Health Insurance with Jason DeMarco (1.0)
Shelby Daly
Course Overview
Many athletic trainers assume they are adequately protected by professional liability insurance without understanding the limitations of their coverage. General liability exposures, including slip-and-fall incidents, equipment-related claims, and organizational risk factors, may not be covered under traditional professional liability policies. Effective risk management requires a combination of appropriate insurance coverage, strong documentation practices, and proactive safety measures. Understanding insurance policies and coverage gaps can help athletic trainers better protect themselves, their organizations, and their careers. Athletic trainers should regularly review their insurance needs to ensure coverage aligns with their professional responsibilities and work environment.
