My Thai wife is a permanent resident in the US, and she is spending the winter in Thailand this year. I'll be joining her from December through February. We've always been covered in Thailand by my workplace health insurance. However, I'll be leaving my job and our coverage will expire on Jan. 1. I'm planning on buying a health insurance policy for myself, but I'm not sure what I should buy for my wife. So, a few questions:

1. Where should I buy a health insurance policy for myself. Internet? In Thailand?

2. Should I just buy a policy over the internet here in the US that will cover us both in Thailand?

3. What coverage does my wife have as a Thai Citizen, and/or should I buy a supplemental plan?

I should also mention this is only for the period in Thailand. We will have a new policy in the US when we return in February.

Thank you!

Suggest you take Travel insurance - which includes medical insurance- before leaving to come here for a holiday

BUPA has very inexpesive policies for Thais. 5000 baht for a comprehensive policy for a 32 year old.

As you both live in the USA, and only visiting Thailand for 2 or 3 months, then a simple Travel insurance will suffice which you can take out before you leave
