Hi all.  Trying to sort our medical health insurance for our LTR visa.  Can I use a global policy from outside Thailand which meets all the requirements?  Finding it hard to find an answer on the official site.

TLDR : Answer Summary

You can use a global health insurance policy from outside Thailand for your Long-Term Residency (LTR) visa, provided it meets the requirements set by the Board of Investment (BOI). Specifically, the policy must be valid in Thailand and offer a minimum in-patient coverage of $50,000 USD per person. Several users have confirmed their policies from international providers were accepted without issues.

Yes you can. Must show BOI your policy is valid in Thailand, and meets minimum requirement of $50,000 USD per person for in-patient coverage.
