After all, what\u2019s the use of an insurance that doesn\u2019t cover your costs?<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"356\">At IDA, the insurance company of the DAN Europe Group, refusing to cover a DAN member is the least preferred outcome. That\u2019s why, every year, thousands of DAN Europe members successfully claim their medical expenses.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"574\">A small fraction of claims, however, do get rejected, usually because of a handful of errors made by the claimants.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"691\">Let\u2019s explore the five most common mistakes that lead to insurance claims being denied.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"1---Failure-to-involve-the-DAN-Alarm-Centre-early-on\" data-renderer-start-pos=\"780\">1 &#8211; Failure to involve the DAN Alarm Centre early on<\/h3>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"834\">As a DAN Member, you can rely on an exceptional tool: the DAN Alarm Centre. Available 24\/7, you can request help via telephone, VoIP call, and email, from anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"1013\">Not only will you receive specialised assistance by our doctors and experts; DAN may also be able to guarantee that your expenses will be covered or even take on your costs, so that you don\u2019t have to pay anything up front.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"1237\">By contrast, if you only involve DAN after you\u2019ve already received treatment, you may find out that some expenses fall outside of your insurance cover.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"1390\"><strong data-renderer-mark=\"true\">Tip: <\/strong>In case of emergency, <a class=\"cc-1rn59kg\" title=\"https:\/\/www.daneurope.org\/en\/emergency\" href=\"https:\/\/www.daneurope.org\/en\/emergency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-testid=\"link-with-safety\" data-renderer-mark=\"true\">contact the DAN Europe Alarm Centre<\/a> as soon as you reasonably can.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"1390\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11410471\" src=\"https:\/\/alertdiver.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/diver.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alertdiver.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/diver.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/alertdiver.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/diver-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alertdiver.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/diver-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/alertdiver.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/diver-700x467.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"2---Late-notification\" data-renderer-start-pos=\"1488\">2 &#8211; Late notification<\/h3>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"1511\">Suppose you had an accident but didn\u2019t immediately involve DAN to help you handle the situation. That may not be an issue in itself, as you can still file a claim.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"1676\">However, it is crucial that you notify the insurer <strong data-renderer-mark=\"true\">within 60 days<\/strong> from the date of the accident. If you miss this deadline, your claim might be rejected.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"1830\">In the past, some members have unfortunately made the wrong assumption that they should wait until all medical treatments are completed before they can initiate the claims process.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"2012\">In fact, it is paramount that you notify the insurance company as soon as possible, even if you don\u2019t know yet how much you will claim eventually.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"2160\"><strong data-renderer-mark=\"true\">Tip: <\/strong>Always <a class=\"cc-1rn59kg\" title=\"https:\/\/www.daneurope.org\/en\/emergency#FileAClaim\" href=\"https:\/\/www.daneurope.org\/en\/emergency#FileAClaim\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-testid=\"link-with-safety\" data-renderer-mark=\"true\">notify IDA<\/a> within 60 days from the date of the incident.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"3---Exceeded-travelling-days\" data-renderer-start-pos=\"2230\">3 &#8211; Exceeded travelling days<\/h3>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"2260\">A special feature of many DAN insurance plans is the so-called \u201cnon-diving cover\u201d.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"2344\">For instance, with the Sport Silver insurance plan you will be covered for <strong data-renderer-mark=\"true\">non-diving<\/strong> related emergencies while travelling abroad for a maximum of 90 days per year.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"2510\">Now, consider this scenario: you decide to travel outside of your country of residence for 2 months. After your return, you still have 30 days left on your plan. Later the same year, you make another trip, this time for 40 days.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"2740\">In this example, you\u2019ll have spent 100 days travelling abroad. Only the first 90 of them fall within the scope of the non-diving cover.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"2877\">Result: if you had a non-diving related accident during the last 10 days of your trip, you wouldn\u2019t be able to make an insurance claim for it.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"3021\"><strong data-renderer-mark=\"true\">Tip: <\/strong>Before travelling, check the remaining validity of your non-diving cover. Also, keep a copy of your travel tickets.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"3021\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11410480\" src=\"https:\/\/alertdiver.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/divers.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alertdiver.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/divers.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/alertdiver.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/divers-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alertdiver.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/divers-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/alertdiver.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/divers-700x467.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"4---Failure-to-review-the-terms-and-conditions\" data-renderer-start-pos=\"3146\">4 &#8211; Failure to review the terms and conditions<\/h3>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"3194\">We get it: Reading insurance documents can be boring. But when your well-being is on the line, taking a few minutes to review your policy can make all the difference.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"3362\">Being aware of any exclusions is particularly important, as there might be elements you didn\u2019t consider.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"3468\">Relying on unqualified advice is also risky. Your friends may be great dive buddies, but they might not be as reliable when asked about what\u2019s covered by DAN.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"3628\">At the end of the day, a claim will be accepted or denied based on what\u2019s written on these documents, not on what you or your buddies assumed was covered.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"3784\"><strong data-renderer-mark=\"true\">Tip: <\/strong>Read carefully what it\u2019s covered and what is <em data-renderer-mark=\"true\">not<\/em> covered. If in doubt, ask DAN Europe.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"5---Incomplete-documentation\" data-renderer-start-pos=\"3877\">5 &#8211; Incomplete documentation<\/h3>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"3907\">To make an insurance claim, you need an invoice or other proof of payment. However, having clear medical reports is also vital.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"4036\">For example, suppose you underwent a hyperbaric chamber treatment but have no medical report stating <em data-renderer-mark=\"true\">why<\/em> you needed such a therapy. Without a proper report by the treating facility, the insurer will be unable to cover your expense.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"4269\"><strong data-renderer-mark=\"true\">Tip: <\/strong>Always request and keep all medical reports, proofs of payment, and invoices.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"4356\">Filing an insurance claim is not fun. One would rather avoid accidents in the first place. But if you ever find yourself in this type of situation, now you know how to save yourself further stress and ensure a smooth and hassle-free refund process.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"4650\"><strong data-renderer-mark=\"true\">About the author<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"4668\">Emanuele has been with DAN Europe since 2013 and currently serves as the Customer Experience Manager.
