Nomads on Reddit compare Genki and SafetyWing—Genki praised for seamless hospital visits, SafetyWing criticized for claim friction—even across Europe and SE Asia.
One Redditor noted: “I use Genki and have only had a super minor experience so far, but it's been positive … a doctor came to my hotel room … diagnosed influenza A…” :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}. Another said: “I use Genki too. I got into the ER in the Philippines. Claimed it all back, no issue, good service, very helpful chat.” :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
A popular thread cautioned: “Avoid safteywing … they promptly stopped paying out even small claims…” citing delayed reimbursements and intentionally vague agent responses :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}.
Genki earns praise for strong support in Asia and Europe, useful telemedicine, and clear process via the Air Doctor app. SafetyWing is affordable and easy to sign up—but Reddit users frequently warn about poor claim processing under real-world conditions.
