TLDR : Answer Summary
A member recently moved to Thailand seeking recommendations for affordable health insurance. The responses included suggestions for several providers, primarily highlighting Pacific Cross due to its reputation and reliability. Other mentioned options included Tenzing Pacific Services and Tabby Fin Infinity as brokers, along with AA Insurance and WRLife. Discussion also covered the importance of considering factors like age, health status, and policy deductibles when evaluating costs.

I’ll add that I have Pacific Cross as well. The cost will depend on your age, your health, and any preexisting conditions.

WRLife have competitive prices. I've been with them for 3 years now.

Many retired expats are with the Pacific Cross. They are having a customer call center where you can sign up. Not really needing an Agency.

I also have Pacific Cross. My strategy for health insurance in Thailand is to have a large deductible (in my case, 40,000฿). I pay for routine care myself and the insurance is there for something really serious. This keeps the year price down, I’m now getting a 20% no claims discount.

My Pacific Cross policy qualified for my previous OA visa extensions and now for my pensioner LTR.

what cost pa please !

@John *******
For me the cost is about same as my previous US insurance. Your cost is going to depend on your age, the amount of coverage, the deductible, and possibly your health status. You need to ask the insurance company or broker directly for your personal circumstances.

70yrs old no underlying medical problems .

@John *******
70 years is generally the cutoff age for not being able to get insurance. You definitely need to contact an insurance company yourself. What I am paying is irrelevant to you.

I've been with Pacific Cross for years. A very reliable and trustworthy company based in Bangkok.They have always been in the top when it comes to reviews. They have loads of different priceworthy plans. Google them. A piece of advice, don't use a broker.
