Safety concerns.

Abstract

Current University Interscholastic League rules allow physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and chiropractors to perform physicals. But a special Texas Medical Association subcommittee that vetted sports injury-related bills during the last legislative session questions whether chiropractors have the necessary training to adequately conduct sports physicals. In May, the TMA House of Delegates adopted a resolution that says only licensed physicians, or their appropriately supervised physician assistants or advanced practice nurses should perform sports physicals.
