Medical Assistance Fund

The Medical Assistance Fund (MAF) was established in 2021 to cover medical costs for eligible athletes that are not met through traditional resources. This resource is designed to support the medical needs and alleviate financial burdens of elite athletes training for the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Funds will be used to pay for significant medical costs incurred by eligible athletes, including necessary travel-related expenses. The USOPC is dedicated to making a positive impact on the lives of athletes facing medically-related financial hardships, enabling them to overcome various challenges and pursue their goals.
