Wellness Family Medicine is now accepting Aetna insurance.
The change matters most to patients who carry an Aetna plan. They can now choose the practice for their care and use their coverage there.
For a family medicine office, adding a major insurer widens the circle of people it can serve. Families often pick a doctor based on which plans are accepted, so a new network option can make the decision easier.
Family medicine covers a broad range of everyday care. Patients of different ages usually see the same practice for checkups, common illnesses and ongoing health needs.
As a result, Aetna members who were waiting to find a practice in their network now have another choice. Current patients who switch to an Aetna plan may also be able to keep seeing the same team.
Benefits differ from plan to plan, though. Patients should confirm the details of their own coverage with Aetna before a visit, since copays and covered services can vary.
Anyone who wants to book an appointment can reach out to Wellness Family Medicine directly.
