Hello plan on coming over on OA retirement visa $200 but what cot my eye was the OX for $300 and the OX multiple visa for 400. Now trying to get insurance I have blue card insurance 

But the list given on consult web site is as fallows

Navakij insuance

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is considering obtaining an O-A retirement visa for $200 or an O-X visa for $300/400, and is inquiring about acceptable health insurance providers for these visas. They mention their current Blue Card insurance and question whether this can be used instead of the specified providers: Viriyah, Navakij, and Thaivivat. A commenter highlights that only the listed insurance providers are accepted for the O-X visa, regardless of any other insurance policies held, and notes a significant increase in financial requirements for the visa.

You MUST use one of the insurance providers listed. It doesn't matter if you hold another insurance policy or not, those are the only ones accepted for the O-X visa.

You did notice the increase of financials from 800K to 3 MILLION baht right?

once you get your second year admitted until stamp IF you are going to leave during that year you get the re-entry permit either at the immgration office or at the airport before you fly out.

Whether you get a single or multiple re-entry is your decision and depends on how many times you're leaving the country this next year.
