Aetna Public Employees Plan provides comprehensive medical benefits and helpful tools and resources to help enrollees maintain their health and the health of their families.
- Choose from Aetna’s nationwide network of providers
- Pay low copays for most services
- Use online tools to find doctors or check on a claim
- Get covered preventive care screenings free
- Find reliable health information with Aetna InteliHealth®
With Aetna Public Employees Plan, there are no deductibles to satisfy first before using your medical or prescription drug benefits. You can also see any doctor or health care provider, even specialists, as long they’re members of the Aetna provider network. You don’t need to choose a primary care provider first or get a referral for a specialist!
Just be sure to always choose an Aetna network provider for services to be covered. Services provided by non-network providers are not covered, except for emergency care.
