Sherly this information is out of date, since 2022 there is a new health insurance regulation in thailand called "New Health Standard". -It guarantees contract renewal (so the insurancy company can't kick you out if you make a big claim) -Forbids premium increases based on individual claim history (company can only increase premiums based on age, occupation and if there were lot of claims on a portfolio level so they have raise everyone's premium equally) These are pretty much the same as european regulations . This only affect new contracts so if you bought insurance in 2021 for example then still the horrible old rules apply. sources: in english SCB bank: https://www.scb.co.th/en/personal-banking/stories/protect-my-family/new-health-standard.html in thai AIA insurance: https://www.aia.co.th/th/health-wellness/new-health-standard in thai blog post: https://www.msmany.com/TH/product/newhealthstandard.html The only "catch" is in the "New Health Standard" that the insurance company can put you on copayment but only if the company reserves this right in the policy when you buy it (so read the renewal terms of your contract in thai). And copayment is limited to 30% per criteria but it can go up to 50% if you meet multiple criteria but can't go up higher than that. And if the company puts you on copayment then they have to give you the same amount of discount on your premium (so 50% copayment means 50% discount on your premium) and if you do not meet any copayment criteria the next year then the company has to remove the copayment.
