That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.
Re: Health Insurance-Married to a Government worker
A spokesman for Thailand’s State Insurance Commission says all foreign arrivals into the Kingdom will need to have insurance cover for Covid-19. Suthipol Taweechaikarn says the insurance will need to cover people for the duration of their visit and that various packages are being made available for online purchase.
Coconuts reports that travellers coming from countries considered low-risk for Covid-19 can expect to pay anything from 1,600 baht to over 43,000 baht, depending on where they live and the extent of the coverage. Packages vary from under 30 days to a year, with 16 Thai insurance companies selling coverage online. These include Pacific Cross, Muang Thai Life and Viriyah. Foreign arrivals will need coverage of up to 3.2 million baht, to cover medical treatment, in addition to potential funeral expenses or to transport their remains home, in the event of death from the illness.

Re: Health Insurance-Married to a Government worker
That sounds like an exciting next chapter! When I was looking into moving abroad, I found that government employees in Thailand usually have solid health insurance, so you should be covered pretty well. Just make sure to double-check if that insurance meets the requirements for the marriage visa. It might also help to get a confirmation letter from her employer about the coverage, just to have everything sorted for immigration.
