FREE 9+ Sample Physician Release Forms in MS Word | PDF

Physician release forms have a couple of uses and these are generally used to assess and clear a patient that needs to return to work after physical examination being conducted by authorized health-care experts at the request of the employer. These can also be used on athletes who have been treated and recuperated after being injured while playing and need a clearance to go back to playing after being carefully physically evaluated.

Our Sample Forms for physician release come with different examples for employees who are assessed to return to work. We also have release forms for athletes that need physical evaluation before they can go back to playing. These forms can be downloaded and may be used immediately after printing.

Our physician release forms for clearance to return to work have standard lines that need to be filled by a health-care professional describing the extent of recovery and present condition needed so an employee can return to work. A clean bill of health is necessary to prevent additional injury to an employee who may look otherwise healthy but still suffering from an ailment. There have been cases when workers have sued their companies for being forced to return to work after they’ve been requested to go back to work based on doctor evaluation after a medical checkup.

For an employee who has been on medical leave from work for a couple of weeks or months due to serious injury sustained either at work or through an accident, having a physician release after recuperation may not necessarily mean the employee may be totally fit for work. That’s why it’s very important for physician releases to be detailed as much as possible. As seen in our examples, there are several questions that a health-care professional should fill out and answer in detail to prevent a general clearance without specifics on the details of the injury and what is being done to address the full recovery of the injured employee.

For athletes who either compete professionally or in school athletic programs, we also have forms that can be used to either act as guides on a format for a standardized platform that can be immediately filled out by health-care professionals or ones that can be used immediately based on standard medical forms printed in schools.

When trying out or participating in school athletic programs, every student is required to complete a medical review from authorized physicians, otherwise he may be not be allowed to compete nor participate in athletic programs. In professional sports, the guidelines are more strictly enforced considering owner companies are paying players big salaries. Injuries are an accepted risk in sports, and for any athlete to be injured and recover enough to go to work, he must be able to undergo the whole process of being evaluated, assessed, and reviewed before being diagnosed as medically fit to go back to playing.
