ORIGINAL POSTER

Can anyone recommend any health insurance, I'm originally from the U.K. so never had to worry about any health care needs. I'm looking at staying in Thailand with my DTV so want to make sure I'm covered.

I was very happy that i got into nowhealth international with my pre-existing conditions. Most of the ones i asked for offers said mo thanks. My broker in Switzerland helped me back then. I was on a non b visa before and my medicine is only available in more fancy places. They have a direct billing system with bumrungrad hospital in Bangkok. It’s quite pricey but without this i couldn’t live here. It’s weird for people who never had to worry about healthcare. I felt so American 😂

I have recommended

@Robert ********

in Bangkok and

@Arawan ******

in Phuket for your insurance. They have helped thousands of folks get their health insurance for their stay in Thailand. Especially during COVID-19 they were VERY helpful day and night as thousands sought help getting the required health insurance for getting back to Thailand.

MTL or Thai Life. Both are highly recommended by the doctors and nurses that I spoke with while in the hospital. No issues with unexpected refusal to pay issues leaving you with major expenses draining your bank account.
