ORIGINAL POSTER
Hey everyone, not 100% sure if this is strictly DTV-related, but thought I’d ask here anyway.

For those of you who have been approved for the DTV (soft power – Muay Thai) in Southern Thailand, I’m curious what health insurance you went with?

What factors made you choose your policy? (coverage, price, combat sports inclusion, etc.)

Also, are there any specific companies or policies that are better suited to DTV Muay Thai, or are they all pretty similar?

Appreciate any insights šŸ™

The author seeks advice on factors to consider when choosing a policy, such as coverage, price, and inclusion of combat sports. One comment suggests obtaining long-term international health insurance from one's home country for better coverage and legal understanding, mentioning specific companies like HMRV, SafetyWing, and Genki as options.

As I often mentioned, I would suggest people to get a long-term international health / travel insurance in their home country. This way, you should better understand your legal rights and what is actually covered. Hard to give any specific advise without knowing your country of residence etc. In my case this was not only cheaper, but also covered a lot more than Thai insurances that I heard of (like truly unlimitted coverage). I use this one:
