My BF is of the age (41) wher he belives Taksin's 30B per visit works. So far he's not had any major reason to visit medics but it seems to be working still  for his minor reasons

You get what you pay for...what is your health and life

worth...I would rather have 600.000B less in my portfolio 

and go for the best health care!!  IMHO

My Thai wife had a MR I in Australia a few weeks back and the cost was zero, zip none. Covered by Medicare not private health insurance.

and how much income tax did you pay for all this "zero, zip none" medical coverage?

 

I would say about 45%....

I'm willing to pay for good medical care but not for any extras make you feel like in a five star hotel.
That's why I changed from private hospitals to the good government one's.

It'll be the police next asking you to deposit your gold necklace before they get off their butts.  'But my necklace has just been snatched; that's why I'm here.'
