If there is a structure in place for public hospitals, why not expand it to include private sector and have it funded by the private hospitals and set up as a separate entity? What you are describing is an industry w/o checks and balances thus hide/cover up mistakes and errors…but more importantly, never learns from errors to prevent future mistakes…bottom line….should/must be held independently accountable by a third party…self policing doesn’t work effectively for health, safety, environment, food, pharmaceutical, domestic animal/wildlife and nuclear to just name a few…

Medical malpractice is determined by doctors and lawyers not by patients, family or people with an opinion there are 4 parties involved…the patient and their medical legal lawyer/firm, the attending hospital/medical staff , the second or follow up hospital/medical staff and finally regulatory body in thailand that is responsible for investigating and monitoring bad outcomes and procedures when in question…participant 4 can also dole out penalties like removing licenses and privileges etc…civil and criminal penalties will be handled by the court system if the case is brought to court by the number 2 party I don’t know how thailand works but you need to play the game and follow proper protocol in whatever system is in place…don’t expect it to be like the west where one has more transparency and more checks and balances in place (that’s my assumption based on working in a western system where lawsuits are frequent and court cases/settlements are abundant best thing to do is to hire the best medical legal firm and do your homework…let them handle the whole process..and you can be an active participant by monitoring their behavior professionally, medically and legally via a 2nd law firm if need be…be sure any law firm one hires has medical expertise on staff or via contract… culture leads to differences and how things are processed/done so patience on your part will be greatly needed along with your determination if one (you and law firm) feels a wrong has been committed

Thai gov is so incompetent…because they can’t figure out how to get the economy rolling, they pick low hanging fruit like retired expats who are bringing in money to spend repeat spend not to horde… Why in the hell do you want to tax a group who in turn is putting the money into the economy? ir makes zero sense…it’s like the bar scene when having low volume of customers raise drink prices rather than offer discounts to attract more customers Mind boggling….

Son and daughter need to get her fit to fly and then deal with housing/care issues upon return… I know in canada one must reside X months b/f receiving gov health coverage so could also be a barrier to overcome in UK -
Why is this important? So you want to act the Thai way and put your head in the sand b/f people are higher up on the social pecking order? Typical non democratic way of dealing with an issue in a dysfunctional law and order society

Generally, it is superior in 3 ways - critical thinking, knowledge based and more importantly it is tied to getting a career/better jobs…do you know how many run of the mill college grads in thailand work in blue collar positions with zero advancement opportunities? “ put down your phone…You can clear the table now” min wage in Ca for a Day - $160 …in thailand 400 baht or under $13
