Members can have immediate access to educational and medical material, as well receive notifications of emergency situations and events.
Insurance for scuba diving accidents
DAN Dive Scuba Diving Accident Insurance protects members from the financial cost of an underwater accident. Membership costs $35 per individual and $55 per family. The DAN can also use it to do research on safety diving and provide emergency medical aid. Although it is not necessary to be a member, it is worth considering before you dive.
DAN offers divers insurance that covers a wide range of risks. You can choose depending on your requirements a plan that covers both medical costs related to an accident and the loss or damages to your diving equipment. Some plans also cover medical evacuation costs if you are more than 50 miles away from your residence.
Project Dive Exploration
DAN USA and the DAN formed the PDE database in the early 2000s. This database has information about recreational, mixed, and decompression dives. The PDE database currently has 137,451 profiles. This data is collected through field work and laboratory studies.
PDE stands to represent Project Dive Exploration. If you're a DAN diver, you can help the charity by sharing your profile information. For a chance to win, you must dive at least 5 dives between May 28th and September 3rd 2007. For every 10 dives completed, a commemorative shirt will be awarded to the winner.
