Is it cheaper to get health insurance from providers in Thailand or in the UK for someone over 50?

@Robert ***********

They will consider pre-existing conditions. If under 65yrs, there is an option to have a medical exam or wait a year for review. You will need to consult as it depends on the health condition. Check with the broker: Alex Lekse,

Thanks. Easier than applying while in Thailand initially on a tourist Visa. Seems many arrive in country as a tourist then apply for OA. Currently, I live in Arizona.
