What health insurance companies or policies can expats in Thailand trust for retirement coverage?

Robert **********

Everybody lists their favorite brokers in these posts. But if you’re older, look at how much they pay per hospital day. Often is very low. To collect the amount of the policy, you would have to be in the hospital the whole year. Usually the potential payout is around the same as the annual premium.
