Can I get some advice on how much for health insurance for a retirement visa from Australia or getting one from thailand just try to get a price for a 67 year old thanks in advance

Ref : Health Insurance

As a fit & heathy 55yr old, i will potentially be coming to thailand on a Non-0 or LTR Retirment Visa, my initial research suggests a good comprehensive health insurance policy can be as much as THB 10-20k pm. Is this correct?

Also can anyone recommend any good policies and/or broker, i'm looking for a comprehensive policy with no nasty exclusions, would prefer higher limits and the best coverage

i have not ruled out Thai Insurers, but would prefer the most extensive types of policy

thanks in advance

Hey everyone, I have always been on Alianz Care health insurance because I move between different countries, I am planning on staying for a while in Thailand and wanted to ask, what do you guys do for health insurance and are there any specific solutions that works in Thailand and other countries? Thanks

Hello to everyone 🙏😊

Does anyone have any experiences with a cheap Thai health insurance which fulfills the requirements for getting a OA retirement Visa ?

I just need this insurance for the Visa issue. I have another health insurance which is not accepted for this purpose.

Thank you for all your help in advance.

And please say something when you know something.

🙏😊🙏

Hi everyone, I got my DTV approved via Madrid.

Can you recommend a good and affordable health insurance please? Thanks 🙏🏽

Looking for advice re insurance to support O-A visa from UK Thai Embassy in London. I have previously (for many years, lastly in 2023) used a UK insurance company alongside their completion of the required certificate. This has in the past always been accepted and the visa issued. This year, I have received the attached insurance rejection message. It seems that now a ‘health insurance policy’ is required, rather than a ‘travel insurance’ policy with included medical cover. Does anyone have any experience of this and know any ways to resolve it? Failing this, what’s a cheap insurance company to offer me the cover? - I’ve already bought the UK insurance and it can’t be cancelled.

Thai Embassy/ The Royal Thai Consulate-General would like to request for additional documents as follows:

It's a little off topic but I guess most of us use health insurance as a part of digital nomading life.

For last 2 years I've been using Safety Wing (Vumi insurance) and I had a feeling I'm overpaying due to using third party but turns out that for circa $1500 it's very good insurance compared to buying directly from insurers like AXA, Allianz etc.

While in most cases inpatient it's decent (but still below Safety Wing), outpatient benefits are negligible basically while it's $5000 on Safety Wing policies which can cover few serious tests like MRI, PET if necessary without overnight stay in hospital.

What's your experience with global health insurances? Any reasonable offers on the market below $1000 without losing most benefits from Safety Wing? Do you read T&Cs or just buy whatever and hope for the best? 😁

We're here until October on a tourist visa will then complete DTV in australia before returning.

How have others transitioned their travel insurance? Do we need to cancel our normal policy and transition to expat insurance?

For context we are 31 and 32 with a 2.5 year old.

We've got a 12 month lease and car here. From australia.
