Healthcare for ex pats

Hi Gents,

I am just trying to give you an alternative option to look at regards your health insurance needs, although I am saying nothing against BUPA.

This outfit are based in Bangkok, they have offered me the best insurance package, even though I will be in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.

They do, of course, cover Thailand and all Asia.

If anybody wants a quote or just to check them out, here's the person I dealt with and the company.

The contact is Richard Haigh.

Hi,

They've told me any treatment I need for the throat cancer situation including consultations, I must do myself. Fairly standard to all insurance cover, I believe, as its pre existing.

When I tried to fill out the online application on that insurance mentioned by Kevin, I found that the age limit is 65. That's a real problem with expat health insurance coverage. You can be as healthy as a 40 year old but if your are over a certain age, they won't accept you as a new applicant, even with a medical exam. In my case, I have never been able to find any company willing to insure a new applicant over 70, no matter your state of health, even if you pass the physical with flying colors.

Great info Kev. I'm a little late probably in saying this but nice to see you back on here! I'm with AXA PPP for what it's worth. Think I'll be going back to BUPA tho.
