Hi - looking for some advice on the COVID/general health insurance.

I need cover for a full 12 months as per the working contract i'll be undertaking. I am coming from the UK, which AXA advised me is a high-risk area during the quotation i got with them.

I have read so much on this group about insurance and finding it hard to whittle down advice.

i am specifically looking for advice from people on working visas and their experience.

obviously I will be doing the ASQ upon arrival so want to be covered incase of positive test and asymptomatic - I know AXA does this and have had a quote from them just wondering if there is any others that fall in this bracket?

Thanks in advance.
Answer summary
A UK expat is seeking advice on health insurance coverage for a 12-month working contract in Thailand, particularly focusing on COVID-related insurance that covers ASQ upon arrival. They have received a quote from AXA but are looking for other recommendations based on fellow expats' experiences with working visas and insurance options.
