    Should the following terms and conditions be acceptable to you, please indicate your agreement and acceptance by selecting the button below labeled "I Accept".
    • The term precertification here means the utilization review process to determine whether the requested service, procedure, prescription drug or medical device meets the company's clinical criteria for coverage. It does not mean precertification as defined by Texas law, as a reliable representation of payment of care or services to fully insured HMO and PPO members.
    • Applies to: Aetna Choice® POS, Aetna Choice POS II, Aetna MedicareSM Plan (PPO), Aetna Medicare Plan (HMO), all Aetna HealthFund® products, Aetna Health Network OnlySM, Aetna Health Network OptionSM, Aetna Open Access® Elect Choice®, Aetna Open Access HMO, Aetna Open Access Managed Choice®, Open Access Aetna SelectSM, Elect Choice, HMO, Managed Choice POS, Open Choice®, Quality Point-of-Service® (QPOS®), and Aetna SelectSM benefits plans and all products that may include the Aexcel®, Choose and SaveSM, Aetna Performance Network or Savings Plus networks. Not all plans are offered in all service areas.
    • All services deemed "never effective" are excluded from coverage.
