Your primary medical insurance may exclude diving as a hazardous recreational activity and/or may not provide coverage when you are traveling out of the country. If it does provide coverage, it may pay only a minimal amount for chamber treatments.

There may be large out-of-pocket payments for deductibles and co-pays. These alone can total thousands of dollars.

Yes, DAN World offers packages valid for international diving.

The cost of hyperbaric chamber treatments vary.  However, the cost could range from $330-$1000 per hour plus the costs of medication and physician fees. Costs depend on how many treatments are required, the location of the dive accident and the hyperbaric chamber facility.

DAN World dive accident plans provide coverage from the date of purchase. If you have not departed on your trip or collected benefits under the DAN World dive accident assistance package, you have the right to cancel your plan for a full refund within 10 days of purchase.  

Other requests for full or partial refunds will be evaluated on the facts of each request. Once you have collected benefits under your dive accident insurance plan, a refund is not permissible. To initiate the refund process, each person covered under a dive accident insurance plan must submit a request to cancel in writing with a handwritten signature (document can be scanned or emailed).

Commercial diving is not covered. DAN World offers dive accident coverage for recreational divers. A covered dive or a covered diving activity means a recreational dive or diving while a scuba instructor, dive master, underwater photographer, or while performing research under the auspices of a Underwater Scientist (AAUS), Canadian Academy of Underwater Scientist (CAUS) or a group whose written diving research protocol meets or exceeds those of the AAUS or CAUS. A covered dive begins upon entry into the water and ends upon exit from the water and the covered dive must begin while the dive accident insurance is in force.

Contact DAN World and we will be happy to update your account.
