ORIGINAL POSTERWhat are members thoughts or experiences with obtaining Health Insurance for 90+ days. I'm 74 and a UK citizen arriving on Visa Exemption.
TLDR : Answer Summary
In a discussion regarding health insurance options for a 74-year-old UK citizen arriving in Thailand on a Visa Exemption for over 90 days, members shared various suggestions and experiences. Recommendations include AXA, Wrlife, and local options like Cigna, particularly for seniors. Users noted that travel insurance can cover medical emergencies and repatriation, and some shared personal experiences with costs and providers. Ultimately, one user decided on Luma Health for £320 for 106 days of coverage.

With “only” 90 days, get a TRAVELinsurance with the advantage it will include transport back to your country in case of severe illness or death, and often also bringing relatives to Thailand before repatriation.

I am arriving from the UK next month for 89 days, I have taken insurance for the second year with Staysure.
With a medical condition declared just short of £800, I'm in my late seventies.
