If a time comes when you’re dealing with more complex health challenges, you can be assigned a nurse to work with you over the phone on an ongoing basis. Or if you have an ongoing health concern like diabetes, heart disease, asthma and low back pain, your nurse may call to check in from time to time. These services are included as part of your plan.
You may also get a letter or phone call from us, depending on your needs. Don’t forget, your caller ID may not say Aetna when we call. That depends on your phone carrier.

Many people who die by suicide give warning signs. Take these signs seriously. It could save a life. You can learn more in the Guide to understanding and preventing suicide.
Some life events can be overwhelming. Like having a baby. Or finding out you have diabetes or heart disease. They signal that you may need to make some changes.
You can also feel emotions like worry, depression, confusion or anger. All of these feelings are normal. But they can hinder your ability to take control and make healthy lifestyle changes.
It’s all a matter of control. And it’s important to know and feel that you can control the condition, instead of the condition controlling you.
