Utah law has required since 2011 that a child suspected of a concussion be removed from sports until evaluated by an appropriate health care provider, who must give written clearance. UHSAA's six-page packet, revised August 6, 2024, includes parent instructions, provider guidance, a graduated return-to-sport table, the clearance form and a return-to-school recommendations page.
The school representative fills in the student, school and injury details. The health care professional checks one of four outcomes, marks MD, DO, NP or PA and signs with license numbers; an athletic trainer or trained responsible adult signs when supervising the graduated protocol.

UHSAA Concussion Instructions and Return to Sport Clearance Form
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.

A licensed health care professional practicing within their scope who has completed a continuing education course in concussion evaluation and management within 3 years. The form offers MD, DO, NP and PA checkboxes and asks for the provider's license and DOPL license numbers.
Yes. One option lets the athlete advance through the protocol up to level 4 under school-designated personnel, with re-evaluation required before levels 5 and 6. Another releases a recovered athlete to complete the protocol monitored by an athletic trainer or trained responsible adult.
A six-step strategy adapted from the 6th International Conference on Concussion in Sport: symptom-limited activity, light then moderate aerobic exercise, individual sport-specific exercise, non-contact training drills, full contact practice and return to sport, each typically taking at least 24 hours.
