Nancy Baton

Aetna Medicare Advantage Member

 

“Hi, my name is Nancy Baton. I am a retired New Jersey high school principal and middle school principal. And I am truly enjoying my retirement.

 

I live with my husband here in Westfield, New Jersey and I’ve been married to Bill, it’ll be 38 years this summer.

 

We have two children, grown children, and I have five grandsons. My friends are very important to me. I have one group of friends with whom I play mahjongg once a week on Fridays and another group that we play a variety of card games. Just enjoying each other’s company is what’s so important to me.

 

When it came time for me to enroll in Medicare, I wanted the one with the least amount of hassles and I had been told what a great health plan Aetna has. That’s why I chose Aetna and I’m very happy I did.

 

When I decided to go with the Aetna Medicare Advantage plan, I chose it because of the wide range of coverage and the low copays. And I found that I was not limited in my choice of doctors.

 

We use CVS pharmacy, it’s very convenient. They even have a drive-up window and what we like is that when our prescriptions are ready, they text us.

 

Every year Aetna offers the opportunity for a Healthy Home Visit. Once a year they send a nurse right here in my home and the nurse examines me and actually this year she found something. So she did a test on me and my doctor called me and said you need to see a vascular surgeon and I’m under his care. Now I never would have caught something that could be potentially very dangerous had that nurse not come to my home.

 

I love to walk. I recently had a spinal fusion so I’ve been unable to walk. But I’ve walked between two and five miles with a friend almost every day.

 

I’m recuperating now from the surgery and I had a great deal of support from Aetna because they supported what the doctor recommended and I am now in physical therapy twice a week.

 

And I’m really looking forward to getting rid of my back brace and just starting to walk again. Having the support of Aetna and not having to worry about bills or paperwork or is this covered, I didn’t have any of that. All I do now is concentrate on my recovery.

 

If you’re not healthy, you’re not going anywhere. So Aetna has helped me stay on track.”

Rosemary Hughes

Aetna Medicare Advantage Member

 

My name is Rosemary Cyboard Hughes. I'm a retired New Jersey principal. My husband's name is Al. We've been married 27 years. For our second date we went dancing and that's something that we still enjoy. We have to move.  Being healthy in retirement means I still am able to do the things that I did before I retired. I go to classes for aerobics and yoga. I'm part of a book club. We meet once a month and it's good to be with the girls.

 

In 2018, I had breast cancer and it was scary, but luckily, they caught it in its early stages. And then in 2019, I transitioned to the Aetna Medicare Advantage plan. Now, of course I was concerned about transitioning at such a time, but I found out that I could keep my doctors and that they approved the care that my doctors had planned for me. When you're going through breast cancer, it's a big, scary thing. And you need as much comfort as possible, which is what Aetna did for me. Every time that I have called them, they not only answer immediately, they constantly are trying to serve me and do the best they can. Moving to Aetna was seamless. It was easy.

 

When we switched carriers, I was also concerned not only for myself, but for my husband. My husband has Parkinson's. He is not always able to leave the house to go to a doctor. Telehealth services from Aetna has been very beneficial to him. He can still get the care he needs.

 

I like that Aetna provides you with a healthy home visit from a nurse practitioner. I have been doing it for the past three years. It's very convenient. They come and I'm at ease because I'm in my home and they are able to see both of us at the same time. That’s good because I can hear firsthand what’s going on with my husband as well as he can do that for me.

 

Aetna is key. It has been the best carrier that I have had because of the extra mile that they go to, to make sure I'm healthy. And I'm very grateful that I'm not only alive to see my great-granddaughter, but to be able to do things with her. Aetna has truly been good to me and my family.
