With the high school fall sports less than a month away, local healthcare providers are encouraging parents to get their child’s physical examinations scheduled.  Physicals for students who participate in organized sports are a requirement to ensure healthy participation.  Melissa Fleischman, team leader from Bellin Health in Sturgeon Bay, says if your child did not have a physical last year, he or she is due for one this upcoming school year.

Bellin Health offers a free coupon for an EKG test that needs to be done in Green Bay.  The $20 physical fee gets donated back to the student’s school, according to Fleischman.
