How much do you pay for health insurance?
Sorry, your point is what? This is about insurance premiums not hospital facilities -

How much do you pay for health insurance?
Have you had a comprehensive medical check up? Pushing 70, there's probably one or two things that are already likely, simply due to old age. I think it is better to be forewarned BEFORE signing up for medical insurance and get one of those comprehensive 'executive' medical examinations. Private hospitals will be more expensive but some public ones have cottoned on to the idea of health checks and 'wellness' for the locals and can do the same... just takes longer and will probably be less 'comfortable' than a private hospital. There are still a few insurers who don't require a pre-screening medical examination while you are still under 70 years old. However, they will ask for FULL disclosure when you apply and, if you didn't tell them about the glaucoma, enlarged prostate or stage 1 hypertension, they can and will weight the premium if they find out after-the-fact. -

How much do you pay for health insurance?
If I only had ฿100k savings in the bank, I certainly wouldn't be retiring in a foreign country. ฿1M should be enough for most people, at govt hospital. That would probably pay for emergency by-pass surgery if needed. Anything else, once stabilized, you could fly back to home country, and be a blight on society there I prefer a larger savings account, since having wife & kid, though kid has employer paid Thai health insurance. Wife had surgery last year, couple night in hospital, and only cost was for private room, and some incidentals. Rest covered by Thai universal insurance, at no cost. Sadly, I think you are correct, and most here are living month to month. Oh well ... 😎 -

Something smelling musky -- the age of undemocratic in your face oligarchy in the USA.
What landslide?!? The Senate, the House, the popular vote, the electoral vote, that's a pretty good interpretation of a landslide. -

I love insurance, and the companies I have done business with have all done great by me. That said, they are in the business of collecting premiums, not paying out claims. I doubt very much it is in Thailand's best interest to add a bunch of old men to there system. Sure, rich countries like the US, you have no money/assets, it's "free". This is not a rich country. -
