    Where to get hospital insurance for LOS that is affordable?

    Surely every expat is not paying the £300 pm that Cigna want?

    Is there an alternative to PMI?

    Any reasonable links / brokers / etc welcomed

    Welcome back, 17 years and not so much as a phone call.

    What's your situation re: age, working/retired etc etc?

    300quid sound steep but we don't know your age. I would try an actual domestic company like Muang Thai. We used Muang Thai for all our insurance needs.

    We get something through work and there are so so many get out clauses. Was much better in Mongolia- I would worry if I got really ill in Thailand.
    Good luck finding something good.

    I don't know about the Mongo one, but I know a lot of people that have been saved by having the Thai employment one.

    Niddy and Fondles above, must have saved hundreds of thousands of baht alone. They can correct me if I'm wrong.


    Word to the wise, when you finish up your work, if in the system for 12 months or longer you can register to continue being in the system within 6 months of leaving the job. 400+ thb will be deducted automatically from your bank account and you will have it for life.
