This post falls under the "Everything else" category.

I'm wondering since many of you are on various types of visas. Are any of you with Cigna for medical insurance (because the do international cover) and how is your experience with them?

Thanks!

Cigna Global Health plan was very good to work with. Covered an unexpected major surgery last year, 100%, at a private hospital in Bangkok. Billed and paid directly with the hospital.

I think Cigna's is now the largest insurance company in the world. I looked extensively at their plans, and like all health insurance, bracketed by age and plan benefits offered . they will exclude, as all do here, for pre- existing conditions and may require a surcharge for things like being overweight.

again, I'm talking about Cigna plans on offer to expats living here. they are not cheap, but are a top notch company and recognized by most thai hospitals.
