Two things, a loaded van can weigh 3t+... If one ran over my bike I'd want it checking to make sure everything was straight, just because it wasn't high speed doesn't mean nothing will get damaged

Secondly, the PCSO shouldn't have told you to take it outside the insurers, legally you have to report it to your insurers, in real life it's up to you, if you do report it your premium will go up even if you're totally blame free, such is the scam, if in 6 months time you find out the swingarm is bent or if the van driver decides to try and pull a fast one on you your insurance company is going to be asking why you didn't report it...
