Everyone that I know that's had Aetna has had horrible things to say
about them.  Blue Cross/Blue Shield doesn't get too much flak, although
I've heard that their claims department is a hideous bureaucracy and can
take a long time.  Though Humana's been a pain for me in regards to big
things like maternity and hospital stays, they have been very flexible
with referrals to specialists who are outside of their system if they
don't have specialists in that area (in our case, pediatric nephrologists).
