Scheduling a Physical Examination (Scholarship Student-Athletes): Coaches will contact scholarship student-athletes and/or their families regarding specific dates and times for physicals. ADHD Medications: The NCAA bans classes of drugs that can be harmful to student-athletes and that can create unfair advantages during competition (NCAA Bylaw 31.2.3). Some medications that student-athletes are prescribed for legitimate medical reasons contain NCAA banned substances. The NCAA, through the NCAA Committee on Competitive Safeguards and Medical Aspects of Sports (CSMAS) has a procedure to review and approve the use of medications that contain NCAA banned substances through a Medical Exceptions Procedure. The NCAA has a strict application of the NCAA Medical Exception policy, specifically for the use of banned stimulant medications (e.g. Ritalin, Strattera, Adderall, Concerta, etc.) that are used to treat Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Student-athletes who have been diagnosed with ADHD and/or have been prescribed stimulant medications should immediately notify a member of the MSU Sports Medicine Staff to begin the process of obtaining the necessary documentation. Student-athletes who have been treated since childhood with ADHD stimulant medications but do not have the pertinent records with regards to the diagnosis, management, and continuing evaluation must undergo a comprehensive evaluation to obtain the necessary documentation. At a minimum, student-athletes must provide the following documentation from the prescribing physician: 1. Description of the evaluation process which identifies the assessment tools and procedures; 2. Statement of the diagnosis, including when it was confirmed; 3. History of ADHD treatment (previous/ongoing); 4. Statement that a non-banned ADHD alternative has been considered if a stimulant is currently prescribed; 5. Statement regarding follow-up and monitoring visits; and 6. Copy of the most recent prescription (as documented by the prescribing physician). This documentation should be on file with the MSU Sports Medicine Staff. The student-athlete should come to campus with the documentation or all documentation may be sent to: Mary McLendon, ATC Director of Sports Medicine P.O.

Drug Testing and Banned Drugs: MSU Sports Medicine March 2015 The Mississippi State University Department of Intercollegiate Athletics recognizes that drug and alcohol use and abuse is a significant problem in modern society. The abuse of chemical substances poses a serious threat to the physical and psychological well being of student-athletes. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has also recognized this issue and requires that all athletes under its jurisdiction be placed under its drug testing policies and program. The NCAA has established a year round drug testing program that includes on-campus testing as well as testing at all NCAA Championship events. To ensure both the wellbeing of our student-athletes and compliance with NCAA drug use regulations, Mississippi State University has established a year-round, comprehensive drug education and screening program. This program is designed to provide student-athletes with a means of obtaining support, assistance, and direction in dealing with drug and alcohol abuse. The NCAA will also conduct a year-round drug-screening program on campus, at the site of postseason events, and at any other time as determined by the NCAA. Enclosed you will find the most recent NCAA Banned Drugs Handout which will give you more information. The MSU drug testing policy can be reviewed on the MSU Athletics website (www.mstateathletics.com) by selecting Athletics then Compliance. You are also welcome to review the policy at my office, and the policy will be included in the Student-Athlete Handbook. I encourage you to review this information. A positive MSU or NCAA drug test for street drugs (including marijuana) or performance enhancing drugs can result in suspension from participation and ultimately a loss of scholarship. Nutritional/Dietary Supplements: The use of supplements has become widespread among athletes, and student-athletes have tested positive and lost their eligibility from using these products. Any supplement product or medication, even those that do not seem to be targeted to athletic performance, needs to be reviewed with the MSU Sports Medicine Staff. The NCAA mandates that each athletic department designate provide a staff member as a resource for questions about dietary supplements and NCAA banned drugs. All inquiries should be directed to the Director of Sports Medicine, Mary McLendon. Before consuming any nutritional/dietary supplement product, review the product and its label with the Director of Sports Medicine. Dietary supplements are not well regulated and may cause a positive drug test result. Even if a product is not known to contain a banned substance, any product containing a dietary supplement ingredient is taken at your own risk. Injury/Illness Reporting Procedures: Any student-athlete who is injured/becomes ill must IMMEDIATELY report the injury/illness to a member of the Mississippi State University Sports Medicine Department. Costs pertaining to an injury and/or illness not reported in a timely manner may be the responsibility of the student-athlete and/or his/her parent(s)/guardian(s). Missed Doctor s Appointment Policy: Student-athletes who are late and/or fail to show-up for scheduled appointments with the team physician, medical consultants, and/or diagnostic test/procedures will be financially responsible for any and all charges resulting from the missed appointment. In addition, the student-athlete may be responsible for rescheduling the appointment and providing his/her own transportation.

Contact Lens Policy: MSU Sports Medicine March 2015 Scholarship student-athletes in need of an eye exam and/or contact lenses will be referred to the Team Ophthalmologist/Optometrist by a member of the Mississippi State University Sports Medicine Department. If the doctor determines a need for contact lenses during sports participation, studentathletes will receive a supply of contact lenses. One (1) pair of lenses will be kept by the studentathlete s certified athletic trainer in case of an emergency. If the student-athlete has a current prescription, you are encouraged to transfer the prescription to one of our eye doctors. Your team s athletic trainer can help with that process, and the prescription must be less than one year old. Student-athletes in need of glasses need to contact the Compliance Office to determine if opportunity funds can be used to defray the expense. Out-of-town Physical Therapy/ Rehabilitation Procedures: At times, it may be necessary for a student-athlete to utilize an out-of-town physical therapy facility. In such situations, permission must be granted from the Director of Sports Medicine and/or her designee. Such referrals must come from a member of the Mississippi State University Sports Medicine Department. If a student-athlete decides to utilize physical therapy/rehabilitation services without the authorization of a member of the Mississippi State University Sports Medicine Department, the student-athlete and/or the student athlete s parent(s)/guardian(s) will be financially responsible for any and all medical bills incurred. Physician Referrals/Consultations: The Mississippi State University Athletic Department and MSU Sports Medicine have fostered positive relationships with many medical providers who have consistently provided high quality service to Mississippi State University student-athletes. Members of the Mississippi State University Sports Medicine Staff will refer student-athletes to these providers, unless extenuating circumstances necessitate a different provider. Student-athletes with HMO policies are strongly encouraged to have a local primary care physician (PCP), so that timely care can be given. All student-athletes must be seen and evaluated by a Mississippi State University certified athletic trainer before a referral to a physician will be made. A member of the Mississippi State University Sports Medicine Department must authorize and properly refer all student-athletes to see a physician or medical consultant, and/or for diagnostic tests. If a student-athlete decides to see a physician/medical consultant, and/or undergo a diagnostic test WITHOUT prior authorization/referral from a member of the Mississippi State University Sports Medicine Department, the student-athlete and/or the student athlete s parent(s)/guardian(s) will be financially responsible for any and all medical bills incurred. Medical Second Opinions: If a student-athlete and/or his/her parent(s)/guardian(s) desire another physician s opinion on a medical injury/illness, the student-athlete and/or the student athlete s parent(s)/ guardian(s) are financially responsible for any and all medical bills incurred, including but not limited to office visit charges, travel, and additional testing. The student-athlete will also be responsible for acquiring any requested medical records.

MSU Sports Medicine March 2015 Additional Information for Non-Scholarship/Walk-On Student-Athletes: All non-scholarship student-athletes are required to have coverage under a personal health insurance plan. The Mississippi State University Athletic Department will only take responsibility for injuries sustained while participating in a supervised workout, practice, game, or team travel and will not take responsibility for any expenses until your deductible has been reached. Any amount up to your deductible is the responsibility of the student-athlete and/or the parent(s)/guardian(s). For additional information, please review the Health Insurance Information that came with your Health Insurance Information/Authorization Form (separate mailing).

After reading the NCAA Concussion Fact Sheet, I am aware of the following information: Initial Initial Initial A concussion is a brain injury, which I am responsible for reporting to my physician or athletic trainer. A concussion can affect my ability to perform everyday activities and affect reaction time, balance, sleep, and classroom performance. You cannot see a concussion, but you might notice some of the symptoms right away. Other symptoms can show up hours or days after the injury. Common signs and symptoms of a concussion include: Initial - Amnesia - Confusion - Headache - Loss of consciousness - Nausea - Double or fuzzy vision - Sensitivity to light or noise - Balance problems or dizziness - Feeling unusually irritable - Feeling sluggish, foggy, or groggy - Slowed reaction time - Concentration or memory problems If I experience any of these signs or symptoms or in any way suspect I have suffered a concussion, I am responsible for reporting this to my team physician or athletic trainer. Initial Initial Initial Initial If I suspect a teammate has a concussion, I am responsible for reporting the injury to my team physician or athletic trainer. I will not return to play in a game or practice if I have received a blow to the head or body that results in concussion-related symptoms. Following a concussion, the brain needs time to heal.
