A medical waiver form provides information about someone's current medical issues. It also lists personal information about the individual as well as lists emergency contact information. The purpose of of completing the form is to protect an organization from liability. For example, a martial arts gym may have interested parties or participants complete this form. If someone has asthma or a chronic issue, the gym would not be held legally responsible for those issues if something were to happen.

A medical waiver form is used to provide a party such as an organization or employer with medical information about the filing party. This form may be required before someone can participate in certain activities. Commonly, medical waiver forms are required for sports, summer camps, after-school activities, or retreats. The form will ensure that the organization has a record of the participating party and that they will not be liable for injuries they may encounter.
The first section of a medical waiver form will typically ask for basic information about the filing party, such as full name, date of birth, and address. If the party is a minor, the parent or guardian will also need to include their information. Emergency contact information should also be listed. The final section of this form should include any known medical conditions the party has, such as allergies, chronic diseases, or other issues. The form must be signed by the filing party or their parent or guardian.
