As one of the nation's leading healthcare benefits companies, Aetna provides individuals with information and resources to navigate their healthcare's medical and financial aspects.Â

In addition to various insurance and employee benefits products, Aetna provides programs and services designed to address rising healthcare costs while prioritizing quality.Â
Recognizing the pivotal role women play in both households and businesses, it's essential to provide them with the necessary education, screenings, and pregnancy support they need. Aetna offers a range of services tailored to the specific needs of women:
Supporting high-risk pregnancies
Identifying pregnant members with conditions posing risks to both mother and baby, they offer compassionate support to ensure a healthy beginning.
The Aetna Maternity Management Program includes:
This proactive approach yields positive outcomes, reduces neonatal services, and mitigates the high costs associated with complications.
Advocating for healthy, full-term deliveries
While some pregnant women may opt for early induction, waiting until 39 weeks offers many health benefits for both mother and baby, such as reduced complications and quicker recoveries. Aetna helps promote safer deliveries through its three-part initiative:
Breast health services and support
Aetna provides routine mammogram coverage for all women. Through its member website, women can also access comprehensive information on breast healthcare and cancer prevention, including reproductive cancers, treatment options, coverage details, nutrition, stress relief, and more.
Simplified genetic testing
Members with inherited genetic cancer risks can opt for both face-to-face and phone counseling, empowering them to take charge of their well-being and consider steps to help lower disease risk. Providers can easily order testing through Quest Diagnostics, with members submitting their family history online for streamlined processing.
A catastrophic health insurance plan provides essential benefits defined by the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Still, it typically limits you to three visits to a primary care provider per year. These plans have low monthly premiums but have very high deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance costs for most routine healthcare services. You are responsible for covering nearly all your healthcare expenses, except preventive care, until you meet your deductible, usually several thousand dollars.
Coinsurance is the part of a covered healthcare service you are responsible for paying, usually after your deductible has been satisfied. Your health insurer pays the remaining balance. Typically, coinsurance rates are lower when you use in-network providers (in-network coinsurance) than out-of-network providers (out-of-network coinsurance).
Example: If your coinsurance for a therapy session is 30%, and the session costs $150, you will pay $45 out of pocket (after meeting your deductible).
Also called boutique medicine or retainer medicine (or direct care), concierge medicine is a system in which a patient pays an annual fee directly to a doctor in return for more personalized healthcare and easier access to the physician. These practices often limit the number of patients they serve, allowing the doctor to spend more time with each person and focus on preventive care. The insurance does not cover the retainer fees, and one must pay them out of pocket.
A copayment, or copay, is a fixed amount you pay for specific healthcare services, such as doctor visits, prescription medications, or covered treatments. Your health insurance covers the remaining cost. Copayments are usually lower when you use in-network providers (in-network copayment) and higher when you go out-of-network (out-of-network copayment).
Example: If your copayment for a doctor’s appointment is $20, you will pay $20 out of pocket at the time of the visit (assuming you've met any deductible), regardless of the doctor’s actual fee.
An OB-GYN, short for obstetrician-gynecologist, is a medical professional specializing in obstetrics, which concentrates on pregnancy and related health matters, and gynecology, which focuses on general reproductive health. These practitioners often collaborate closely, leveraging their expertise to provide comprehensive care. Some medical professionals may hold dual certifications in obstetrics and gynecology, referred to as OB-GYN, enabling them to manage anything from general reproductive health to childbirth. Â
Upon arriving at the doctor’s office, your appointment will begin with a thorough health assessment, including vital signs (including weight, temperature, blood pressure, and blood and urine tests).
The OB-GYN will inquire about your medical history before performing a breast and pelvic examination. If necessary, they may perform a pap smear with a specialized swab to collect a sample of the cervical tissue.
If you are pregnant, a visit to the obstetrician will similarly begin with a health assessment, encompassing blood pressure measurement, weight check, and a urine sample analysis to screen for indicators of conditions like preeclampsia or gestational diabetes. The doctor will also monitor the baby's health by listening to their heartbeat and assessing the baby's size and position through palpation of the abdomen. Depending on your medical history and existing conditions, the physician may recommend additional tests.Â
