Catastrophic Insurance

Featured Replies

In a related thread, an individual had emergency hospital bills that some commenters said could have been avoided by having catastrophic or accident insurance.

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas or experience with any insurers who provide a good policy at a reasonable rate that would cover accidents and the medical costs that accompany them?

I realize that there are many insurers who, for a small fortune, will give you the same odds as a casino at about the same price, but what about practicality and actually paying for what is insured?

Health insurance is another matter entirely, and this question pertains only to accidental coverage.

I got a policy at the Bank of Siam in the night bazaar. Strictly accident. Good for 5 years. They tell me they can not issue a policy after a person turns 70.

Accident insurance is usually included in an overall health-care plan. But there are some stand-alone policies offered by some of the banks like Kasikorn Bank. I checked into it at one time and found that it was much better value to buy a health-care plan that included the benefit.
