Can I obtain health insurance in Thailand with pre-existing conditions?

What a paradox, I can't get insurance due to age and pre existing medical history. Yet I pay VAT and Income Tax to the Thai Govt. Also donations and falang tax.

John Bon Jovi advised me to LIve On A Prayer

even renewing existing policies when u have been ill and are over 60 is massively expensive

Are you trying to get insurance for coverage or insurance for a visa, such as the non-OA?

Speak to the guys at

and they will be able to cover you

I have the same problem with heart failure and a blood condition that’s classed as a cancer but isn’t a cancer my wife says if I get to ill she will throw me out of the truck and hope the person that hits me has insurance

I agree with Brandon Thurkettle above.

As soon as you hit 60 you're a liability, get to 65 and nobody will insure you... Full stop. Mention pre-existing conditions and you just realised you're wasting your valuable time even looking for quotes. Insurance companies don't even want the slightest possiblity of you making a claim.

Sadly over here you have to wing it, and pray that if ever you do get sick, real sick, that you DIE in your sleep before ALL your saved money goes on hospital bills.

Sadly that's what's in store for ALL pensioners retiring over here.

Unfortunately there is no happy ending getting older in Thailand. Unless you find a really good wife that WILL look after you in old age.

Good luck everyone.

There is One saving grace. Government Hospitals are very good and relatively inexpensive. 🙏🙏🙏

Insurance in Thailand always excludes pre-existing conditions.
