WADA publishes Therapeutic Use Exemption Checklists in 4 additional languages
The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) is pleased to publish a series of Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE) Checklists, which provide guidance and support to athletes, their physicians and Anti-Doping Organisations (ADOs) during the TUE application process.
These Checklists are based on the TUE Committee Guidelines (TUEC Guidelines) (Medical Information to Support the Decisions of TUECs documents), which were developed by WADA and external medical specialists primarily for TUECs. The Checklists – which cover the most commonly seen conditions – list the requirements for completing the TUE Application Form, including the medical evidence that must be submitted along with it.
When WADA first published the English versions of the Checklists end-April 2019, the Agency asked ADOs for assistance in translating the Checklists in multiple languages, which are now available in French, Spanish, Russian, Uzbek. WADA strongly urges all ADOs to use these Checklists in their interactions with athletes and applying physicians.
