Where a hospital publishes several tiers for the same procedure, every tier is listed but only its cheapest counts once in the median. "From" prices are starting prices; the hospital's page sets out what moves them. The median is used rather than an average so one very expensive hospital does not pull the figure.
By city
| City | Hospitals | Cheapest | Median | In pounds |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LASIK in Bangkok | 6 | 35,900 THB | 51,500 THB | £1,147 |
| Chonburi | 1 | 35,000 THB | 35,000 THB | £779 |
| Khon Kaen | 1 | 80,000 THB | 80,000 THB | £1,782 |
What the price means in pounds
At 44.9 baht to the pound the median is £1,147. At 42 it is £1,226; at 48 it is £1,073. For a planned procedure the timing of the transfer can be worth more than the difference between two hospitals; moving the money at the mid-market rate rather than on a UK card at the desk saves the card's foreign-exchange load on top.
Paying a Thai hospital from a UK account?
Compare the GBP to THB quote before you pay a package price or a deposit.
Before you book on a package price
- Read the inclusions. Surgeon, anaesthetist, implant, nights and follow-up are listed separately by most hospitals; the cheapest package is often the one that leaves the most out.
- Check who the price is for. Bangkok's larger hospitals publish some prices for Thai nationals and foreign residents only (a work permit or residence is asked for) and others for fly-in international patients only; the "who it applies to" column repeats what the page says. Where no restriction is stated, ask before booking.
- Insurance first. If a policy pays the hospital directly, the package price is the insurer's problem; if you pay and claim back, it is yours. The insurance comparison covers direct billing.
- Promotions expire. Prices with a "valid to" date are promotions; the list price applies after it.
Reading hospital prices
- The best health insurance for expats in Thailand, compared.
- Who actually owns the hospital your British family uses in Bangkok or Singapore? The £25 billion answer.
- Retire to Thailand from the UK: the money system before you move.
How The Baht records hospital prices
Every price comes from the hospital's own website, recorded with the page URL and the date it was checked. Prices are the hospital's published package prices, not quotes. Packages are mapped to a fixed procedure list; the hospital's own package name is always shown. Pound figures use the mid-market GBP/THB rate on the day the page was built. Hospitals that do not publish prices are listed on their city page with no figure. Corrections: editorial@thebaht.com.
