What happens if the Daily Room and Board coverage provided by my health policy isn’t enough?

Will you still be admitted without any hassle? Yes, you will! But, of course, you will have to settle with the hospital for the difference at the time of discharge. Both Bumrungard Hospital and Bangkok General Hospital (BGH) verified this process for us. This is one of the advantages of purchasing medical insurance through a locally based insurance company that has a large selection of participating hospitals. You just show the hospital your card and you get admitted without any delay. That is, as long as you have a doctor certified need to be admitted.

About Ajarn.com

Ajarn.com was started as a small hobby website in 1999 by Ian McNamara. It was a simple way for one Bangkok teacher to share his Thailand experiences and pass on advice. The website developed a loyal and enthusiastic following. In 2004, Ian handed over the reins to Phil Williams and 'Bangkok Phil' has run the ajarn website ever since.

Ajarn.com has grown enormously and is now the most popular TEFL site in Thailand - possibly even South East Asia. Although best-known for its vibrant jobs page, Ajarn has a wealth of articles, blogs, features and help and advice. But one principle has always remained at Ajarn's core - to tell things like they are and to do it with a sense of humor. Thailand can be Heaven or Hell for an English teacher. It's always been Ajarn.com's duty to present both sides of the equation. Thanks for stopping by.
