KNOXVILLE, Tenn. ' Professional Drivers Medical Depots (PDMD) has announced an insurance program designed for the nearly one-third of drivers and their families who currently have no insurance.

The Professional Driver Insurance Program (PDIP) was developed through partnerships with the National Association of Workplace Programs (NAWP), Enrollment First Inc. and Scott Insurance, according to Dr. John McElligott, chairman and chief medical officer of PDMD.

McElligott said the insurance program offers drivers customary insurance coverage and benefits, including medical, dental, vision, accident, short-term disability, cancer, critical illness insurance and also includes a 24-hour medical hotline benefit available to all PDIP insured.

"Research shows there are more than 3.2 million professional drivers in the United States, and at least one million of those drivers are not currently covered by medical insurance," McElligott said. "We realized that in order to truly achieve our goal of providing convenient and affordable healthcare to the nation's drivers, we needed to have an insurance product available that will help them pay for their treatment, not just provide the facilities and services."
