Access to affordable, high-quality care

Aetna Medicare Advantage plans are designed to deliver value for our members, making health care easier to access. Our plans are backed by strong provider networks to support quality care for our members. Highlights for 2027 include:

Helping members stay healthy

At Aetna, we know our members' health needs can go beyond the doctor's office and hospital. Leveraging the power of CVS Health and teaming up with local and national service providers, our 2027 Medicare Advantage plans include supplemental benefits and programs designed to help members stay healthy and independent, such as:

Care for those with special needs

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 90% of adults age 65 and older have at least one chronic condition, and many face social and financial challenges that impact their health. Our Special Needs Plans come with support from a dedicated care team to help coordinate care for members and create a more seamless experience for them.

All C-SNP and D-SNP members get a monthly allowance on an Extra Benefits Card for certain over-the-counter (OTC) products. Those with a qualifying chronic condition who meet all other eligibility requirements can use the monthly allowance to help pay for additional everyday expenses, including certain healthy groceries, personal care products, transportation and utilities.

Prescription drug coverage

We provide options for individuals to access their medication at a price that's right for them. For 2027, we will continue to offer prescription drug coverage through our stand-alone SilverScript prescription drug plan (PDP) and as part of our integrated Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans — all backed by CVS Health. Changes and highlights include:
