Assuming everything is the same. PPO, CO insurance, etc. It comes down to your current medical team and the network. If you like your Primary care physician and they aren't in 2 of the 3 networks it might drive your decision. But, overall I have had both blue cross and Aetna over the years and have been happy with both

Got uhc. Been very happy with it. Their app and customer service is great

Aetna is great. Check to see what insurance your pcp accepts.

I prefer BCBS, and would stay away from United. My previous work was in primary care and United was by far the worst insurance provider.

Thanks fish! This is helpful. I actually relocated to a new state so don’t have a PCP yet.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
