What are the best health insurance options for expats in Thailand considering quick visa runs?
Hi all! We're hitting almost 60 days in Thailand now and our initial travel insurance is expiring. Given were planning to stay using quick visa runs, we'd like to have better insurance coverage. Any recommendations? Looked at nomadsworld and it looked very expensive :(

To all people advertising "heath services" I have no idea how someone even calls you unless desperate, no prices or no website "free agents" it all SCREAMS scam or overpriced. Also it should be banned on this group

Why do you need do 60 day visa run since you have a DTV?🤔
Dom ********
Likely you will get one visa run before you start to face problems. I recommend an Ed visa as you clearly don’t have a DTV

We are very happy with Foyer Global Health.
On a side note: Don’t try to do long connected stays without visa. You won’t be successful for long.

Do you actually have a DTV? Your mention of quick visa runs would imply you do not. If you have a DTV you don't do visa runs, you just exit and re-enter as you already have a visa. You can't live in Thailand on visa runs.

I believe they’re using the phrase but don’t realize it’s not the same phrase for Dtv

Avoid safetywing / remote health. Absolute cheats. They will ask for al sorts of unrelated documents just to deny you the claim.
