Cigna Global

Cigna Global is a flexible international health plan from one of the largest US health insurers, particularly popular with American and other expats in Thailand who want a customisable build-your-own structure. The plan lets you choose between three core inpatient tiers and bolt on outpatient, dental, vision, evacuation and maternity modules separately. It has an extensive Thai hospital network with direct billing at major Bangkok and Phuket facilities. Cigna is known for fast claim turnaround and a strong telehealth app, although premiums sit at the higher end of the market and pre-existing conditions are tightly underwritten at application.
