Discounted health care for regular blood donors.  Both Citizens and Non-Citizens. 

For those who have been around the group a while, you'll know we had some info a few months back that the Thai Red Cross actually provides discounted health care to those who regularly give blood.  The Admin of the Thai Citizenship Facebook Group wrote this article.

TLDR : Answer Summary

In Thailand, both citizens and non-citizens can receive discounted (or possibly free) healthcare services as a benefit for regularly donating blood. This includes childbirth costs. The Thai Red Cross offers these healthcare benefits to encourage blood donation. A recent inquiry raised the question of whether there is an age limit for blood donors.

Yes, 60 if first-time donor in Thailand. 70 is upper age.

As we age our ability to replenish red blood cells reduces. Thailand wants the data on donors prior to 60.
