Now in TH. Can I stay longer than the dates the insurance covered for?

Or in other words can I stay longer than I put in the Tpass application? By the time I exit, will they mind this? since by July nobody will care about insurance and all anymore.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquires about the possibility of staying in Thailand longer than the period covered by their medical insurance during their tourist visa application. Multiple comments from other users suggest that most people do not face issues regarding this, as immigration typically does not scrutinize insurance details upon exit. It appears that as long as the user does not overstay the duration stamped in their passport upon entry, they can remain in the country without complications.

Whether it is prudent to stay in Thailand without health / medical insurance however, is an entirely different topic.

That is to say, I had one month insurance for my TP application but my return ticket far exceeded that. If you're already here, nobody will even look at it when you exit.
