It's a real problem for the elderly.
Are there a special requirements for long term stays? Because here (Germany) there are a couple of travel insurances who don‘t have an age limit. It‘s more expensive for elderly, but possible. For tourists it‘s not a problem to get the insurance for the Thailand Pass.
