Premium price, scope, and type of protection are the main reasons to buy long-term insurance. Let&#8217;s give these a closer look:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Premiums \u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to health insurance plans, the cheapest option usually isn\u2019t the best one. At plan renewal time, you might get burned when your premiums increase drastically and you are forced to look for a health insurance elsewhere. When choosing health insurance with the long term in mind, you not only want to find an option where you can afford your premiums, but also one where you don\u2019t expect sudden and high premium increases through the years of your coverage. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Coverage scope<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By choosing the right international health insurance plan, you are not only protecting your health, but also your financial stability wherever you go, at any stage of life. With the right plan in hand, you get access to the best hospitals and clinics worldwide, and high medical costs won\u2019t scare you anymore due to your plan\u2019s more-than-adequate coverage limits. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Coverage that adapts to your needs<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s most important is that your long term plan covers you even in case you develop any chronic diseases. Since pre-existing conditions are a common exception in almost every health insurance plan there is, it is often safer and more economical to stay with your existing insurer when you suffer from any chronic disease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Staying with the same plan long-term offers you better health coverage for the money you pay. In our guide, you\u2019ll find out in detail how to choose the most cost-effective plan, as well as how to maintain it throughout your life. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Download Your guide to obtaining long term health insurance today!<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To get the answers to all your long term insurance questions, be sure to download <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/resources\/prime-guides\/long-term-health-insurance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your guide to obtaining long term health insurance<\/span><\/i><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>For even even better overview of the cost of international health insurance, we have recently released a report entitled the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/ipmi-2018\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">International Private Medical Insurance Inflation Report &#8211; 2018<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This report will give you an in-depth analysis of premium inflation rates seen between 2009 and 2017, and will serve you as a guidebook to finding the best insurer for your long term health insurance plan. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any questions? <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.co.th\/contact-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> one of Pacific Prime Thailand\u2019s insurance advisors for a free quote and plan comparison, as well as expert advice on long term health insurance options.<\/span><\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\"><!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--><\/style>\n<p><span data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-sheets-userformat=\"{&quot;2&quot;:573,&quot;3&quot;:[null,0],&quot;5&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:[{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;5&quot;:[null,2,0]},{&quot;1&quot;:0,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;3&quot;:3},{&quot;1&quot;:1,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;4&quot;:1}]},&quot;6&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:[{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;5&quot;:[null,2,0]},{&quot;1&quot;:0,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;3&quot;:3},{&quot;1&quot;:1,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;4&quot;:1}]},&quot;7&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:[{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;5&quot;:[null,2,0]},{&quot;1&quot;:0,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;3&quot;:3},{&quot;1&quot;:1,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;4&quot;:1}]},&quot;8&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:[{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;5&quot;:[null,2,0]},{&quot;1&quot;:0,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;3&quot;:3},{&quot;1&quot;:1,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;4&quot;:1}]},&quot;12&quot;:0}\"><div class='code-block code-block-6' style='margin: 8px 0; clear: both;'>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.co.th\/compare-quotes\/step-one\/?campSource=PPTH-Blog&utm_source=blog&utm_medium=cta_banner&utm_campaign=Blog_Banner&utm_content=quote\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-417\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.co.th\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/PPTH_Gen_01.jpg\" alt=\"Get a Quote CTA Banner\" width=\"1138\" height=\"493\" \/><\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pacific Prime is pleased to announce the release of our new Guide to obtaining long term health insurance.
