UW Health offers free sports physicals for uninsured high school students

Of the approximate 85,000 students in Wisconsin involved in high school athletics, it’s estimated that two to five percent don’t have health insurance to pay for the sports physicals required by the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association. To help those athletes out, the Dane County Sports Medicine Council is partnering with the UW Health Sports Medicine and UW School of Medicine and Public Health to offer free sports physicals from 6-9pm on Wednesday, Aug. 12.
