Healthy Roster FAQs

Q: Can I still turn in paper copies of the mandatory forms (documents) to the Athletic Office?

A: No. All paperwork must be submitted online via Healthy Roster. The Athletic Office, by appointment only, can help you set up an account and walk you through the steps but all paperwork must be submitted online. Please call 412-318-1437 to schedule your appointment.

Q: Why can’t I fill out PIAA CIPPE – Section 6 online?

A: PIAA CIPPE - Section 6 is the actual physical that requires a physician signature, which cannot be done electronically. The form must be downloaded, printed, filled out by your doctor and then uploaded to your Healthy Roster account. See instructions in your Healthy Roster Account.

Q: Why is PIAA CIPPE – Section 7 not mandatory for all athletes?

A: PIAA CIPPE – Section 7 is only mandatory for athletes who are playing more than one (1) sport during a school year.  This form won’t be available to complete not earlier than six (6) weeks prior to the start of the winter and spring sports season.

Q: Can I fill out the forms (documents) prior to June 1 and submit the physical after June 1?

A: No. All paperwork must be completed and signed annually after June 1 per PIAA guidelines. All documents will be electronically dated when completed online, so you won’t be able to change the date.

Q: Do these forms (documents) need to be filled out prior to voluntary, off-season workouts?

A: No. All paperwork is due prior to the start of the first official day of practice.

 Q: If I have health care  insurance other than Highmark (i.e. UPMC, Cigna, United, and Aetna), do I need to complete the Allegheny Health Network – Authorization for Release of Protected Info and Allegheny Health Network – Consent to Treat documents?

A:  Yes.  These forms are necessary for our Certified Athletic Trainers to provide treatment and care to all student-athletes in the North Hills School District.
