Alaska law (AS 14.30.142) keeps a student removed from practice or a game for a suspected concussion out until a qualified, trained provider evaluates and clears them. ASAA's three-page release records that decision: not yet ready, cleared to begin the six-step return-to-play protocol, or symptom free and finished with it. A separate section covers students the provider finds did not have a concussion.
A licensed health care provider who meets ASAA's definition of currently trained in concussion completes the clearance section and signs with an Alaska license number. The student and a parent sign an acknowledgment of risk, and each completed protocol step is initialed on the table.

If your copy of the form is a fillable PDF, upload it once and Vero Documents fills it from the visit note and the chart, ready for you to review and sign. Download, print, or email the finished form, with the patient’s consent.
A form is listed only after its name and number were confirmed on the issuing agency’s or insurer’s own website, or in the form itself. Each entry links to that source. The list was last checked in October 2026. Forms and their requirements change without notice, so check the official page for the current version before you complete one.

Under AS 14.30.142, a licensed athletic trainer or a qualified person currently trained in concussion evaluation can clear the student. That includes a health care provider licensed in Alaska or exempt from licensure, or someone acting under one. The signer attests to ASAA's training definition and adds an Alaska license number.
The form has a section for the non-concussed athlete. The provider records that no concussion occurred, writes the medical diagnosis that explains the symptoms, and clears the student either for full sports participation or for limited participation with listed restrictions.
After 24 to 48 hours of relative rest, the athlete moves through light and moderate aerobic exercise, sport-specific drills, non-contact training, full contact practice and game play. Each step typically takes at least 24 hours, so ASAA expects at least one week, and unrestricted return can take up to a month.
