Aetna and AARP Health Insurance Provides Relief For Baby Boomers



For people who are nearing retirement there is a new type of insurance that they can now purchase that not only takes their age into consideration but it also takes preexisting conditions and illnesses into consideration. For many people who are nearing this age there is a good chance that they may have preexisting conditions or illnesses that they may need to continually get treatment as they age. Also, it is around this age where people begin to take medications in order to keep themselves healthy, such as medications for common conditions such as diabetes, which is not a serious condition but it needs immediate treatment. This new type of insurance is directed specifically at AARP members between the ages of 50-64, which is the age group that this insurance company is directing this new policy at. This is a whole new market that Aetna and AARP are reaching out to, as they realize that the “baby boomer" generation is reaching retirement age and need insurance. For these “baby boomers" their current employers may not be offering benefits to them once they retire, even though retirement is a time when they will actually need these benefits and the additional coverage. This is causing this age group to buy their own coverage, which is often unaffordable without the normal steady income they are used too. For these individuals, they may not have employer-based coverage and may not yet be eligible for Medicare costs which begin covering people three months before they turn 65 years old. This means that there is a significant number of people who have little to no coverage during this time because of the costs.

Another great feature offered through Aetna and AARP health insurance coverage is the dependent coverage that family members can receive. Dependent coverage is offered to the children, spouses, grandchildren, and even dependent relatives. This means that if the member has a son or daughter that is unemployed they will be eligible to be covered through this insurance which is great when a son or daughter is unemployed or injured and is not able to provide their own insurance.

There are seven different plans that members will be able to choose from these seven categories fall into three different categories, which are Premier PPO Plans, Health Savings Account-Compatible Plans, and Preventatives and Hospital Plans. Under these plans members can chose varying options such as coverage for prescription drugs, hospitalization, or preventative care such as well-child care and yearly physical exams. So there is an option for every type of situation a member is looking for. Also, for members who are looking to insure other people as dependents there are great options for the coverage for children and even grandchildren. Most of these insurance policies are pretty inexpensive when it comes to monthly premiums that have to be paid compared to the average monthly insurance costs.
