Yes, standing orders are required - medical protocols that define what an athletic trainer can do - when necessary by state law. In most states, athletic trainers must practice under the direction of a medical professional, and standing orders are often required, though the specifics depend on state regulations. It’s essential to review your state’s practice act to determine if standing orders are needed for virtual practice, as some states allow certain activities without them while others require physician oversight for all athletic training services.

We understand your concern about signing the NDA before fully committing. The NDA is in place to protect the intellectual property and innovative solutions we’ve spent years developing to advance the future of the athletic training profession and athletic health. This ensures that the unique approaches and resources we offer, designed to make a real impact for athletes and the industry, remain secure as we explore working together.

In the early days of a first-to-market company like WaveOn Health, client acquisition is a collaborative process. Many Virtual Athletic Trainers initially engage athletes from their own professional networks and relationships, while WaveOn Health actively scales outreach and brings on larger clients as the number of Virtual Athletic Trainers grows. This combined approach helps build a strong foundation and ensures a steady expansion of athlete opportunities as the platform develops.

Virtual Athletic Trainers on WaveOn Health are independent contractors, not full-time employees. This means you have the flexibility to set your own schedule, choose how many athletes you work with, and manage your client relationships independently, similar to other 1099 contractor roles in the athletic training industry.

Yes, you can work with athletes in-person in a variety of scenarios. Many Virtual Athletic Trainers supplement their virtual care with in-person sessions, whether it’s meeting athletes locally, supporting teams during practices or events, or providing hands-on care as needed. This flexibility allows you to tailor your services to each athlete’s needs and create the best possible experience, while still leveraging the benefits of WaveOn Health’s virtual platform.

Yes, Virtual Athletic Trainers on WaveOn Health are required to carry their own professional liability insurance. As independent contractors, having personal coverage protects you in the event of a claim or allegation related to your services, even when working virtually. Relying solely on an employer’s insurance may not provide adequate protection, especially for independent or online work. Carrying your own policy ensures you’re covered across various settings and gives you peace of mind to focus on providing quality care to your athletes.

These requirements help ensure you’re prepared for success in a Virtual Athletic Trainer role. Licensed and certified athletic trainer with at least five years of experience. Ability to maintain good standing orders from a medical doctor (MD) when needed. Established relationships with athletes, sports organizations, and healthcare providers. Strong desire to build your own business.

No, in the early stages of the company, athletic trainers will not be charged any fees to join or utilize WaveOn Connect as independent contractors. You can get started and access the platform without any upfront costs. If you are part of an existing organization and interested in joining, we’re happy to discuss options and how WaveOn Connect can support your organization.
