As previously stated, Aetna healthcare offers a variety of plans for their patients. One of the options are Open-access plans. These plans allow patients to choose their own doctors without requiring a referral or a primary health physician. Another option are Copay-only plans. This care plan guarantees that costs after paying the full deductible will only include copays. High-deductible plans offer preventative care services before the deductible is met, sometimes coverage through a primary care physician before the deductible is met (with copay), and the option of a health savings account.

Aetna’s portal also provides a chat option who is there to answer general health questions and coverage questions. Aetna also offers their users an app called iTriage. This allows users to manage their health from wherever they are. This is a great way to manage health concerns on the go.

When it comes specifically to mental health and addiction issues, there is access to psychiatrists, counselors, social workers, therapists, psychologists, and psychiatric nurse practitioners, and primary care doctors. It is important to address mental health issues when seeking information on substance addiction and abuse because of how common co-occurring disorders are with those suffering from drug and alcohol addiction. The most successful way to treat those struggling with addiction is to address all the areas of concern simultaneously.

Since 2012, Aetna announced a partnership with a health group to treat those with opioid addiction. As prescription painkiller addiction has been recognized by CDC as an epidemic in the US, Aetna has opened up many more treatment options to those who are in their network and are in need of addiction treatment options. Aetna keeps all information confidential for those who are seeking help from addiction and substance abuse. No personal information is shared besides what is needed and after permission to healthcare providers. For prescription drug abuse issues, all Aetna plans calls for a combination of therapy and 12-Step programs, in addition to medical detox, as needed on a case-by-case basis determined by each individual’s unique needs.
