Suggest that you apply no earlier than about a month before travelling.

You need to provide valid plane ticket evidence. At this stage it is unknown when flights will be possible.

Ahh, you're applying for an O-A visa from a thai consulate in the US before you come here. You can use your own insurance (as long as it meets the requirements) and just have your insurance agent fill out the paper and include a copy of the policy with the application.

NOW if you're wanting to get insurance from one of the 13 thai companies that are approved to issue insurance for that visa type you go to this website
