FAQ

Yes, through Knoxville Orthopaedic Clinic (KOC), OrthoTennessee can supply certified athletic trainers (ATC) for medical coverage for sporting events outside of Knox County School (KCS) athletics. KOC has the right to refuse coverage of any event which conflicts with the ATCs normal job responsibilities. Any event that is not included in the ATC job description will be charged a fee and must be approved by KOC’s Director of Sports Medicine Outreach and a supervising KOC physician. This includes, but is not limited to, KCS off-season sport camps as well as off-site, for-profit tournaments.
