Need to file an out-of-network claim?

 

If you use an out-of-network pharmacy, you pay the full cost of the drug. To be reimbursed, you need to submit a claim form along with a copy of the receipt to Aetna. Send to the address or fax the number on the form.

Save with generic drugs

 

Generic drugs work the same as brand-name ones but cost less. They have the same active ingredients and meet the same Federal Drug Administration (FDA) quality standards.  
 
Ask your doctor to allow a substitution whenever you get a prescription. If your doctor has prescribed a brand-name drug, your pharmacist can tell if a generic version exists.
