I'm going on a dive trip out of country in a couple weeks and I have to check whether my normal insurance covers diving accidents and/or those that happen out of the country.
I see DAN's $35/year membership includes an optional insurance plan. I assume that is an annual fee? Who has or recommends it?
Not sure if I am reading it correctly but it looks like the basic membership has some kind of travel assistance to get you back to the States and to the closest stateside appropriate medical facility to treat the accident.
So a follow up question is this... If my regular insurance covers diving but only in country, can I use the DAN basic membership to get me to a US hospital and go from there?
As I typed that question I guess if I had a severe accident and they couldn't get me home first, I would be out of luck in that scenario.
Appreciate hearing what people do for coverage.
Thanks in advance,
Rob
