Hi, I am thinking of moving to and living in Thailand now I am retired. I would like your help on finding a comprehensive health policy that will cover me if I need to visit the hospital, have dental work have an operation ,e.t.c NOT accident insurance. This is for the long term.
I do have a pre-existing medical condition , a mitral valve repair done in 2014 but am not taking any medication for it and am healthy.
I would like to find a company where people speak good English so that if there are any problems...it is easier to deal with..
Can anyone point me in the right direction, please ?

AA Insurance Brokers is a good place to start.

BUPA is good. It'll be great if you do let us know what insurance you were able to obtain. Many thanks!

Just check them all out, read the fine print. Most will not cover you after a certain period of time overseas, others will not cover you after a certain age.

For me self insurance is the only way to go, take what the locals get.
