There are MUCH cheaper policies but they offer less cover and have large deduction amounts. I buy a cheap one just to satisfy the extension criteria, as I have a separate insurance from my home country to cover my medicals. My separate insurance does not cover out-patient services. I have to cover these out of my own pocket if the situation arises. My OA insurance costs 7700 baht per year

may satisfy extension criteria but does it satisfy COE requirements? They specifically ask for in and out patient insurance.
