Since my travel-insurance from Norway went out a coupple of months ago I decided to make an insurance in Thailand. I went for a good insurance from Bangkok Bank. Payed 27k for a year, and this will cover all cost with any illness or accident. I thought everything was ok, but then the agent came back to me with a letter from the head-office in Bangkok. It said that since I was a bar-owner and not married they needed a full medical check before I was aproved. It was really important to have a HIV-test since I probably had many girls in my bar
. So the agent took me to Phuket/Bangkok Hospital and I had a full check of everything
I was nervous for a while, but now Ive got the results, and everything was fine
The strange thing is that my friend have the same insurance (46y.o.) and dident need the same check. I was told the reason was because he was married in Thailand before, and dont have a bar. So the chance that he was butterflying was way smaller........strange rules
Anyway, my first hiv-test for allmost 2 years......allways good to know everything is ok
