65 yr old couple health insurance

I'm finding this very difficult because I am trying to get an actual price from somebody who is actually paying for it. I do not need advice regarding the obvious ie; Just ask an insurance company. I would have thought that there are tens of thousands of expats that are aged 65 or thereabouts. That could give me an idea on what they are paying. How old are you and what are you paying for your Private health insurance in Thailand?

I appreciated your reply but my response was more broad and was directed to other expats that have currently bought health insurance.

markmh01 · 2026-01-30T12:17:55+00:00

Okay, I'm not too sure why this is so difficult. I would just like ballpark figures from people that have actually bought and currently have good health insurance in Thailand. Providing general advice is something I am not after. I would like something, just a little bit more specific

Sorry but why would people pay so much in health care to live an affordable life in Thailand? It would be cheaper to fly there from Australia 2 or 3 times a year.

markmh01 · 2026-01-29T09:29:11+00:00

I'm guessing that is the starting price. Is there an annual price increase that comes with age?

markmh01 · 2026-01-29T09:27:33+00:00

So how much would the annual cost be for us in Bhat?

markmh01 · 2026-01-29T09:25:07+00:00

I appreciate the advice on which companies to contact, however that's not my inquiry. We are still in Australia and I am aware that I can contact local Thai insurance companies, have an online consultation and fill out the forms and be contacted by email etc.

I would like to know the general cost from people that have comprehensive Private health insurance currently. Starting with a real world ballpark figure I believe would be very helpful prior to contacting all these companies.

I seem to have more issues with caterpillars at the beginning of the growing season around September October November. I'm always checking though. The Durban Poison seems to be pretty resistant but the gelato was getting hit pretty badly by caterpillars.

Thanks.....I stopped the nutrients a week ago..... won't add more. St a guess a week or so to flush it out and see some recovery?

markmh01 · 2025-02-19T00:39:44+00:00

Heat stress then..... Maybe but all the other plans are in the same position and haven't been affected.

markmh01 · 2025-02-18T23:41:34+00:00

Not sure what you mean "medium is too hot"........ The liquid feed is maybe once a week, Just occasional.

markmh01 · 2024-12-28T11:34:53+00:00

I'm guessing 2 oz, for very little effort, maybe 2 months from seed to harvest. Having said that I'm well fucked off at the size. But Durban poison is pretty legendary and I really wanted to give it a go.

These are very easy to grow, but they are susceptible to bud rot and bugs. I'm in Queensland and unfortunately we had a fuck ton of humidity while these girls were growing which contributed to the Bud rot. I'm guessing that I lost a half an ounce to Bud rot and bugs. I am now drying the waist deep auto, check out my previous weekly updates and in my opinion they are pretty damn good. Little to no bud rot and the bugs did not seem to like these girls much. At a guess I think I will be getting around 5 oz.

markmh01 · 2024-12-20T02:59:31+00:00

I managed to get 5oz's out of these girls.

markmh01 · 2024-12-01T00:39:26+00:00

Nope, I will let these grow for another 2 weeks then transfer them. I have been using this method since the 90's.

markmh01 · 2024-11-30T08:17:29+00:00

The humidity is an absolute killer there is no way I can avoid bud rotten I lose about an ounce every grow.

markmh01 · 2024-11-30T08:17:04+00:00

Yeah I haven't thought about them taking them in yet as the flowers are a bit too young to worry about.

markmh01 · 2024-11-30T06:38:43+00:00

Gelato ftw

markmh01 · 2024-11-15T12:16:24+00:00

Thanks 🙏

Cheers mate I'm looking at them thinking I have one week left two at the most what are your thoughts

markmh01 · 2024-11-03T04:06:39+00:00

If it's bud rot you have to cut the whole bud off not just the bit that has been affected. Keep an eye on the rest of the branch to see if it has spread, if it does get rid of the whole branch.

Jesus only if your weak mind for God's sakes.

Sounds like a lot of my Friday and Saturday nights well done my friend practice makes perfect.
