darrendsd Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I applied via Roojai (Google them) yesterday - 850 Baht for 1 million Baht of cover No questions were asked about pre existing conditions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonray Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) It specifies coverage for $100,000 US not 100,000 baht Interestingly enough...Thai government site says only required for certain foreigners" https://ddc.moph.go.th/viralpneumonia/eng/ind_danger.php Edited April 17, 2020 by tonray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seajae Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I got mine 3 weeks ago, 14 day waiting period, cost was 850 baht, wife did it with my passport. Thing is she was told yesterday it was no longer on offer when she enquired for a friend, it is 100,000 baht towards hospital fees but with a 1 million cover for death or severe complications/coma, we got it through Dhipaya insurance(Roojai) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will need to leave and re enter when borders open again so I bought it just in case Immigration want to see insurance cover for Covid like they were asking for a few weeks ago Might not be needed but for 850 Baht I thought it was worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP was asking about insurance cover for someone who is already in Thailand, not insurance to gain entry into Thailand. In any case you are quoting old expired information. The requirement to have a negative test for Covid 19 and insurance to enter the country was dropped to just a fit to fly certificate. That was then superseded by the ban on all flights into Thailand originally until 18 April now the 30. When international flights resume the new entry requirements will be published, but are unlikly to require the negative test and insurance in my opinion as in most western countries they are both nearly impossible to get.

I got an email from Roojai, and initially thought it was wonderfull BUT Cover of THB 1,000,000 is death benefit, not treatment Inpatient cover is for THB 100,000 - so about two days' stay in a private hospital bed, without ICU costs. May still be worth it for some, but not for me. PH 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattayaKevin Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Bought covid19 insurance from roojai on March 30. They said when I purchased i would get the documents in 14 days. Emailed them the other day, they said give them 14 days so they are wanting to postpone issuing the policy for a total of 28 days. Waste of money.

Coverage 100,000 baht** Medical treatment from infections (Coronavirus (COVID-19)) both In-Patient-Department (IPD) and Out-Patient-Department (OPD) cases Maximum coverage for medical expenses 100,000 THB/year. Coverage 1,000,000 baht* Any illnesses such as coma, brain and nervous system damage or disorders, terminal illness, and or death, as a direct result of the Coronavirus, determined by a physician. Maximum coverage 1,000,000 THB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Within 2 days, I received an email that included my policy number. On Mon. 13th, I received my policy by PDF email. Roojai is only a broker for this insurance coverage as the policy in underwritten and issued by Dhipaya Insurance Co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
