where in Thailand would you like to go? My nephew was looking at BKK but said the International school there was waaaay too expensive. But I’ve heard that the International school in KoSamui, up near Maenam/Fisherman Village area was quite reasonable.
I’m not talking rubbish because I’m talking about what works for me; not you. You are right, I know absolutely nothing about your bacterial infections. I’d be very relieved if I only had to pay 200 for an ambulance. In the US it would be double that and more. At any rate, your health care choices with whatever your conditions are, are your business. My choices are mine and work very well for me. I have enough money to cover any problem I might encounter in Thailand. And I’d gladly spend it there for the superior care😅
oh! lol’. Ok, his name is “No Time 2Be Sad”. Chuck and his wife Paige moved to Thailand several years ago. You should look his channel up and search for the videos about his mom’s surgery. It happened maybe a year ago or less. His reporting was pretty good.
it is. You have coverage MINUS what your deductible is. In my ER case a number of years ago, I threw out my back. Had a friend drive me to the ER. the hospital billed the insurance company $6k (for one xray and one shot and one dr to pat my low back and announce “ it’s pretty tight back there”. I got billed my “out of pocket” or “deductible” $600. Then a few days later I got another bill for $200 for the X-ray.
wow! As far as 24 hour care goes, it’s definitely better and less expensive in Thailand. I just watched a YouTuber, Chris Parker, do a video on those care facilities. I can’t recall what the quote was…I want to say $30 a day, or per hour?? In the US it runs in excess of $5k a month. Medicare covers a few days, and that’s it. I’ve got my plan A to go check myself in one when the time comes.
