Long term resident with a couple of questions...

So my situation is, I am Australian and have resided in Thailand for the last 15 years, I have a wife and 2 kids there. Up until last December i had a work permit and marriage visa.

I let that lapse and I will be returning to Thailand mid May on a tourist visa.

Questions are:

What travel insurance are Australians using with the minimum 100,000US dollar excess for Carona Virus?

Where are people in Australia getting medical checkups from? I am reading the Thai authorities want medicals from a hospital, but I imagine they would be too busy to do that crap, is a GP good enough?
Summary so far
An Australian resident with long-term ties to Thailand seeks advice on suitable travel insurance options covering COVID-19 and where to obtain necessary medical checkups prior to returning to Thailand on a tourist visa.

This page is for Thai Visa advice, not where in Australia can I get a medical certificate. Sorry, try some Australian pages to get information.
