ha ha, I was just researching that myself earlier today. For my situation I'm going to go with the "wh1500" tier, through Wealthy Healthy insurance plan, a specific product offered by Thai Health Insurance PCL, a specialized health insurance company in Thailand. I want some coverage if I'm involved in a traffic accident. Apparently I'll get that for around B1800 a month, 23,000 a year ish. That's what the AI is saying, the agent may say something different. Good luck.

it was for me until they tripled my premiums,despite no claims. My 'misdemeanour ' was a birthday which Cigna said put me in a higher risk pool. I cancelled. Of course.

I got to 65 and premium shot up 25%, yes we are into the high risk category

25% is bad enough but triple? Just trying to unload clients as they age

It is highly individual depending on age and existing conditions but as a ballpark figure you should budget around €2000 per year for in patient only treatment.
