I know that if you are employed in Thailand, you have to contribute to the social fund, and after leaving your employment you are entitled to government hospital health cover so long as you continue to pay about 450 baht/month into that fund.

 

My Googling suggests that a foreigner may join the health fund (through their Thai employer) if they are not yet 60 years old.  Is that correct and is that always correct?  Are there any options for those age >60 years old to benefit from the Thai social fund health cover if they are employed in Thailand?

To my understanding cannot newly enrol if aged over 60
