5 valuable D-SNP benefits to cheer about
Check out some of the many benefits of being an Aetna® Dual-Eligible Special Needs Plan (D-SNP) member
As we near the end of the year, we want to make sure you use all the valuable benefits and services your Aetna® plan has to offer. Need some inspiration? Here are just a few of the helpful ones included in your plan that can help you get healthy.
1. Extra Benefits Card
You can use the monthly benefit amount (allowance) on your Aetna Medicare Extra Benefits Card to help pay for certain everyday expenses like healthy foods and select over-the-counter (OTC) health and wellness products. Call NationsBenefits® to ask questions about your card. They are available at 1-877-204-1817 (TTY: 711) from 8 AM to 8 PM local time, 7 days a week, excluding holidays. You can also visit NationsBenefits.com/Aetna-info for more information. Or call Member Services at 1-866-409-1221 (TTY: 711) from 8 AM to 8 PM local time, 7 days a week to ask questions about your plan benefits. Se habla español.
2. $0 copay
Covered Part D drugs have a $0 copay at in-network pharmacies. No prescription cost makes it easier to keep your medications on hand — and your money in your wallet.
You may be able to save time by having your prescriptions shipped to you. Search for your prescription in the list of covered drugs. (We call this list a “formulary.”) Drugs marked “mail order” or “MO” are eligible through CVS Caremark® Mail Service Pharmacy for home delivery. For other pharmacies, check to see if your prescription is eligible for mail order.

3. SilverSneakers®

- Stretching
- Dance
- Yoga

Look for your Annual Notice of Change (ANOC)
The annual enrollment period (AEP) is a time of year when you can enroll in a medical insurance plan. The great news is that if you’re happy with your plan and all your D-SNP benefits, you don’t need to do anything: Your plan will automatically renew starting January 1.
In the meantime, be on the lookout for your Annual Notice of Change (ANOC). This will let you know how your health plan is changing next year. It will arrive in the mail.
Have questions? We're happy to answer them! Call Member Services from 8 AM to 8 PM local time, 7 days a week. We are ready to help.
4. Covered annual exams
Staying up to date on exams, screenings and vaccines is key for your health. Don’t worry about paying for flu shots, yearly checkups, and hearing and vision exams — they’re covered by your plan at no additional cost.
5. Fall prevention allowance
Over one in four adults aged 65 and older falls every year.* And falling in the home happens more than you think. You get an annual allowance to use to buy fall-prevention safety items like grab bars and no-slip bathmats. Call Member Services to learn more.
