How the engagement works

A clear process, from authorization to actionable summary.

Every engagement begins with permission, a defined role, and clarity about who is responsible for clinical decisions.

  1. Engage

    Agency retains the service and defines the requested scope.

  2. Authorize

    Complete applicable agreements and athlete-specific authorizations (HIPAA).

  3. Inform

    Agency shares the injury, level of concern, and desired involvement.

  4. Review

    Organize available records, history, diagnostics, and opinions; coordinate authorized input.

  5. Deliver

    Provide a concise summary, key questions, and a collaborative return-to-play protocol.

Privacy, documentation and governance

Trust is built into the process, not added afterward.

Authorization first

Applicable agreements and athlete-specific permissions are completed before protected information is accessed or shared.

Approved channels

Secure, approved communication and document-sharing systems are used. Text messages and unsecured email are avoided for medical information.

Defined access

Information sharing is limited to authorized parties, the agreed purpose, and the minimum necessary scope.

Documented workflow

Clear records are maintained of requests, materials received, communications, and deliverables.

Regulatory awareness

Applicable HIPAA, state privacy, licensing, and collective bargaining agreement (CBA) requirements are reviewed with qualified counsel.
