Do the athletes themselves have to make copayments and such as that for their own surgeries,doctor visits,etc. like the rest of us do?

What about the coaches? Is it the same for them? If I can get some answers from anyone who has worked with health insurance,good!



Answer
I worked for a large insurance company that happened to provide benefits to 2 NFL teams and 1 MLB team.

However, the players themselves were not covered by the "team" policy - I think that the NFL player's union coordinates the benefit plan for the actual players and their families. (like how other large unions coordinate benefit plans for union members)

The coverage we provided was for employees of the organizations who would not have been members of the players union, and also - in the case of the baseball team - the minor league players. But, in general, the sports teams that we covered (minus the players) had better than average benefits, compared to some of the other companies who had coverage through us.

I'd suspect that the players have pretty good coverage too, because job performance is so closely related to their health.

Hi,everybody !
I was told that it is impossible to study dance therapy at University-at first I need to study sports psychology,health sciences or biology.

Do you have any information which are the best Universities for it? (Especially,if I still want to study dance therapy later.)

I would like to find some professional ones?
In which countries I should look first?

Maybe someone could write down me some webpages?

Thank you very much,
Best regards,
Anete.
