From what I hear preconditions do not apply for Thai health insurance. I do know my Thai wife took out dead insurance three months before she died and my thai daughter made out like a bandit one month later.

Have a look on Checkdi (Was Mr Prakan)for all your Thailand insurance requirements

You can compare policies and prices in it from the leading providers

I was advised to only take out a policy issued from your home country. A claim may be refused if the insurer can establish that you had a pre-existing condition, whether diagnosed or not.
