Aetna is offering a Special Enrollment Period opt-in for Aetna Commercial-insured/ACA and Small Group Aetna Funding Advantage customers.
Aetna is committed to assisting members during the rapidly evolving COVID-19 pandemic. Aetna is providing an option for most of its insured commercial group insurance/ACA and Small Group Aetna Funding Advantage (AFA) customers to offer a Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to their eligible populations. This new option would be at the election of the plan sponsor. It would apply to most of Aetna’s medical, pharmacy, dental, vision and voluntary products. Interested plan sponsors should contact their Account Manager to determine if this option is available to them.
The SEP is limited to eligible employees and dependents who did not previously elect coverage with their Plan Sponsor. Plan Sponsors with Section 125 plans should consult with their own benefit advisors regarding this action.
This enrollment opportunity will be offered from Monday, April 6, through Friday, April 17, 2020.
Enrollees can choose between an April 1, 2020 or May 1, 2020 coverage effective date.
Group’s requesting to downgrade plans
As a reminder, Aetna is also allowing prospective plan changes, such as benefit buy downs (no buy ups).
