We have an option to change health care insurance and I was wondering if anyone has United Health Care as their provider and what your experience has been. We current have Aetna and they have been pretty much paid for all of John's treatment without any delay or appeals. John is in a partial stable remission but relapse, secondary disease from treatment is always in the back of our minds. The only med he's on is testosterone and he sees his doc 2x year. (pretty good after 8 years)

The reason for the switch is because he has a new job and the upfront contribution is very small but with higher deductible versus a pretty hefty premium we pay now. If I do the math, it's obvious to go with United, but if it means getting an insurer who's policy is to try and not pay for anything, then is it worth it?

Any experiences would be appreciated.

Thanks....Marlene
