Unfortunately, there is a tremendous potential for abuse of this rule at the NFHS and NCAA levels.
The NBA insists that the player who was fouled attempt the FT, if a substitute must enter and take the shots then the original player is out for the remainder of the game.

So who is the judge of "the player is no longer injured"? The ref and/or umpire? The coach? What if the injured player passes out at the free throw line?
The NBA rule should be the high school rule.
