The gift of health: why expats in Thailand should prioritise health this Christmas
Christmas isn’t just about presents and celebrations – it’s a time to focus on what truly matters. For expats in Thailand, the holiday season is an ideal moment to invest in your health or the health of your loved ones. Here’s why giving the gift of well-being can be the most meaningful decision you make this year. Why health matters more than ever Thailand’s private healthcare system is world-class, but the costs can add up quickly. For instance, a single surgery at a private hospital could exceed 100,000 baht, while basic outpatient visits often cost upwards of 2,000 baht. Comprehensive health insurance protects you from unexpected expenses, giving you access to the care you need without worrying about the price. This season, health isn’t just a thoughtful gift – it’s a practical one. Stay on top of regular health checks Routine screenings can detect health issues early, saving lives and money in the long run. Private hospitals in Thailand offer full-body check-up packages, including tests for vital markers like heart health and cancer, ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 baht. Health insurance plans, such as those offered by Cigna, make these screenings more affordable, so you can focus on prevention instead of treatment. Be ready for emergencies Medical emergencies can be financially draining, with ICU stays starting at 20,000 baht per night. Comprehensive plans like Cigna’s cover ambulance services, hospitalisation, and emergency surgeries, ensuring you’re never caught off guard when it matters most. Last chance offer: 10% off for life! Hurry, this offer expires soon! Lock in your 10% lifetime discount now. T&Cs apply* Mental health matters Living abroad can take a toll on your mental well-being. Therapy sessions in Thailand typically cost 1,500 to 3,000 baht per hour, making regular mental health care expensive without insurance. Many plans include coverage for counselling and therapy, offering much-needed support for expats facing challenges. Prevention is key Staying healthy year-round means investing in preventive care like vaccinations and screenings. Essential vaccines in Thailand range from 1,000 to 3,000 baht, while health insurance can significantly reduce these costs. Comprehensive plans ensure you’re protected from common tropical illnesses and other health risks. Why expats in Thailand need comprehensive health coverage Thailand offers excellent healthcare, but navigating the system as an expat can be tricky. Public hospitals are affordable but often overcrowded and prioritise Thai nationals. On the other hand, private hospitals provide world-class care but at steep costs. For expats, comprehensive health insurance bridges this gap. It ensures you can access premium treatment without worrying about the financial burden. Here’s how: Treatment Typical cost in Thailand Covered by Cigna? Outpatient consultation 2,000 to 5,000 baht ✅ Covered Hospitalisation (per night) 10,000 to 30,000 baht ✅ Covered Emergency surgery 100,000 to 500,000 baht ✅ Covered Vaccinations 1,000 to 3,000 baht per dose ✅ Covered Mental health therapy 1,500 to 3,000 baht per session ✅ Covered From routine check-ups to unexpected emergencies, having a solid plan in place gives you peace of mind. It’s an investment that saves you from hefty medical bills while ensuring you always get the care you deserve. The best gift for expats this season Private hospitals in Thailand provide exceptional care but come at a price. Health insurance bridges the gap, offering coverage for everything from routine check-ups to major surgeries. For expats, plans like Cigna’s are tailored to meet diverse needs, covering outpatient consultations, hospitalisation, emergency care, and even mental health support.
