TLDR : Answer Summary
The post seeks recommendations for reputable medical insurance companies for expats in Thailand. Various commenters provided suggestions, including Robert Jackson as a contact person and companies like Genki and WrLife. Important considerations highlighted include the necessity for comprehensive coverage that includes emergency medical evacuation, the difference between inpatient and outpatient care, and the importance of reading the fine print in insurance policies. Additionally, personalized advice and other contacts such as Napawadee Nana Pattha were mentioned.

One thing to remember when buying , you need to read the fine print

There is in & out and most people will buy the in patient only thinking of something major ie : operation and they will be covered but take cancer for example , the majority is out patient ...

All diagnostics , Dr visits , chemo , radiation, pretty much most of cancer is out patient but if you require surgery that would be covered as in patient but not the continuous follow up care .

Rounds of treatment where you attend the hospital for a few hours then go home so be careful choosing and read the fine print and ask lots of questions

Expat health insurance is vital for those living abroad, offering comprehensive coverage, with a minimum sum assured of $500,000 per annum, including emergency medical evacuation because you just might need the cover.

Many domestic plans exclude emergency medical evacuation and have very low limits, and often don’t allow treatment out of country.

Most travel insurance plans becomes invalid after the trip period typically 30,60 or even 90 days expecting you to return to your home country before the end of this period.

A quality expat insurance provides continuous coverage for as long as you want to continue paying the premiums.

Ensure your expat medical plan includes provisions for returning to your home country, maintaining coverage, and portability if you relocate.

Don't rely on travel insurance—it’s designed for short trips away from your home country not those living overseas as expats.
