Most insurance policies expire on 30 June 2013, so its time to seriously think about your insurance options. PADI-endorsed insurance programs for dive professionals continue to offer unrivaled coverages, benefits and value for the 2013-2014 policy year.
With PADI-endorsed insurance programs, there are no surprises and no coverage changes. PADI Members get quality coverage and support from one of the worlds largest insurance companies, backed by the dive industrys most experienced risk management team.
This year, more so than at any point in the last 10 years, you'll want to pay close attention to the details of the various offerings available in the industry, says PADI Americas Director of Legal and Risk Management Patricia Fousek. The PADI-endorsed program continues to offer coverage for conducting introductory programs in open water at a 4:1 ratio (consistent with RSTC Standards), includes coverage for refusing to train someone for safety reasons due to a medical issue and includes technical dive coverage at no additional charge. You should carefully review the insurance program you have, or are considering, and make sure there have been no reductions or revisions in the coverage that could increase your risk.
PADI Members carrying PADI-endorsed insurance programs enjoy the comfort and peace of mind that comes from knowing they have 24-hour access to risk management staff and legal counsel, along with exclusive coverage benefits found nowhere else.
Remember, not all dive insurance policies offer the same coverage or service. The PADI team, including PADI preferred insurance agents, the insurance underwriter AIG, and the defense attorneys who represent PADI Members, have worked together for decades and continue to provide quality, stability and the consistency you expect from the PADI organization. Compare what you get with the PADI-endorsed policy versus the other policies you may be considering.
PADI Members, stay tuned for additional insurance information, including the Surface Interval Special Insurance Edition. Plus, visit the PADI Pros Site (login required) for tools you can use when comparing other policies.
