If you are going for PADI DM they recommend Vincencia and Buckley. I had them for my first year and switched to Witherspoon. They are a little cheaper and more flexible if you should decide to do any crossovers to different agencies or assist instructors from different agencies. For full insurance expect to pay in the neighborhood of 325 a year. There is coverage available for assisting only and is about 100 less but if you should at some point decide to teach the classes you can as a DM or do the other stuff( guided dives, snorkeling/skin diving, discover scuba, etc) you'll need to upgrade to the full level. this allows you to operate with no instructor present as long as you adhere to standards.
