Travel Insurance: I'm looking for the best travel insurance for medical reimbursement in the event of emergency. I don't care about reimbursemet for all that other junk they throw in or even for trip cancellation, just the best medical reimbursement. One name keeps coming up: Faye. From what I can tell they are primary payor, so they pay first and pay directly to the Bangkok hospital of your choice. (Many other insurers YOU have to pay then they reimburse you whenever they get around to it). What I've done is entered my information and set the trip cancellation amount to as low as allowed ($1000) to get the lowest premium, and that gets me $250KUSD medical insurance. I was just wondering if anyone has bought Faye in the past or actuallly had to use them and what the experience was like. Thanks everyone. BTW lots of people say travel insurance is a waste and I used to be one of them until I ended up in Phyathai2 for 10 days from acute respiratory arrest. Try talking yourself out of that one with no insurance and enough cash for about 1/10 of the bill.

For those living abroad or planning to move—what international health insurance do you use and would you recommend it? I’m starting to explore options and would love your input on what’s worked well (or not) for you. Thanks in advance!

Any Non OA retirement visa holders here that can recommend which of the listed approved Health Insurance companies i should look at?

I know it's a cash grab no matter what.

Health Insurance. I’ve read a lot of posts on here. Long term retirement visa coverage. Not a short travel plan.

Seems like everyone is satisfied with all these companies until they file a claim.

So many poor reviews from ALL these companies. Either they refuse to pay claims or refuse to communicate with you, or the coverage/deductibles are just ludicrous.

Who do you put your trust in? Or is this just a roll of the dice?

Hi just a quick #insurance question

I got my evisa (spouse) and will travel to TH in 2 weeks. The visa is 90 days + later an extension

My question is - For how long should I buy a classic travel health insurance from the country of origin? When will I be able to buy "expat"sort of insurance in Thailan?

I mean - e.g. buy whatever travel insurance just for a week or two and quickly change for "expat" insurance inside of TH

Or buy travel for 90days and then I will be able to buy the other one?

What's your experience/recommendations?

Thanks alot!

Anyone here on the DTV visa have any experience with Safety Wing health insurance or recommend something around the same price for medical coverage? Looking at options/prices as planning on staying in Thailand for the next 1-2 years. My wife and I are both 30 from Australia.

I'm looking for health insurance that covers most of SEA as I would like to travel to other countries nearby. I hold a DTV, under 30 years old with no pre existing medical conditions. I see some insurers don't cover scooter/motorbike accidents but this is a must for me. Does anyone have any recommendations?
