Hospital Cost Estimator

See illustrative cost ranges for common hospital visits and procedures in Thailand.

Working figures — we’re checking these against official sources.

Illustrative range only

Actual cost depends heavily on the specific hospital, procedure complexity, and whether you’re insured or paying out of pocket. Treat this as a rough planning reference, not a quote.

Public hospital — OPD visit

฿50 – ฿500

How this is calculated

Each category shows an illustrative low-to-high cost range rather than a single calculated figure, since real hospital pricing depends on too many factors to model precisely.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the price range so wide?

Thai hospital pricing varies enormously — a public hospital and a top private hospital in Bangkok can differ by 10x or more for the same category, and cost also depends heavily on the specific procedure's complexity.

Are public hospitals available to foreigners?

Yes, public hospitals in Thailand generally treat foreign patients on a self-pay basis, and they're typically far cheaper than private hospitals — though wait times can be longer and English-language service more limited than at private hospitals aimed at international patients.
