How difficult is it to secure a retirement visa and health insurance in Thailand with a kidney transplant?

you can't expect a health insurance cover a pre-existing condition. And by the way, a 90-days Non-Imm-O Retirement Visa application (where ever you apply!) and the subsequent "1-year Extension of Stay Permit" out of it, does NOT have a mandatory health insurance requirement

Hello. Mark who replied here is my insurance agent. I am not an expert on this topic let alone a professional. But Mark has helped me a lot. My first claim ever was in the past couple of weeks after I broke my ankle. His company worked immediately with the hospital to cover the part of the claim that they were liable for. They negotiated at 6:30pm on a Saturday evening and agreed their share within 30 minutes when I checked out. They had been informed when I entered of course. It was remarkable to me actually. My only comment is that you should consider too much coverage not too little if you want full reimbursement. And the other thing is that you will likely use public hospitals for small things and the cost of that is trivial. They are good too. But for something serious you might decide to go to a private hospital for all kinds of reasons including having many staff who are fluent in English. The costs then can be substantial. Nothing as horrendous as the US but not small. You need to decide if you want to be fully covered. It depends how risk averse you are. And how rich. Good luck.

It's unlikely any insurance will cover you, in very best case they will exclude anything related to your kidneys.

Pre existing conditions make health insurance tough over here they don’t want to pay to start and if they can blame it on pre existing they won’t

If your wanting a OA retirement visa its best to obtain a health insure on the approved list.

You have a chronic disease in insurance talk

The premiums will be high and yearly rates will be crazy if they accept you

If you have another insurance that will pickup the tab (VA insurance, employer insurance etc) you could omit these conditions and get a great rate

The other choice would be to have super high premiums to lower the rate of the policy

This company basically covers everyone
