I'm an expat, planning on spending most of my life here in Vietnam.
I want to get health insurance that isn't too expensive but will still cover me if I go traveling or whatever.
Right now, I've been recommended to go for global health Asia...do these packages look reasonable to you?
globalhealthasia.com/inter/index.asp?sid=668&did=27&pg=expat-medical-insurance

I'm looking to work on a temporary basis so I don't think I can get it through my employer.
So if anyone knows a good expat health insurance company that is somewhat comprehensive,
please send the information my way. I only have to cover myself and I have my own business.

Thanks

You can find the detailed policy here: Liberty Healthcare. It is well known as the most appropriate for expats in Vietnam now.

I have just used its travel medical insurance (moderated: no free ads please), the service is quite ok!
