If you or a family member on the UM/Aetna medical plan take medication for diabetes, asthma, high cholesterol, or hypertension, you can save money and get personalized medical guidance through Aetna Health Connections. This condition management program provides you with an Aetna nurse, who will be your personal health coach and can help you understand your doctor’s treatment plans, help you find healthier lifestyle choices, and keep you on track to improve your well-being.

Program participants will receive generic drugs for their condition at no charge and a 50 percent co-pay reduction for preferred brand drugs. Maintenance medications should be filled in 90-day supplies at CVS or through Aetna Rx Home Delivery to make the most of the discounts. It can take up to eight weeks from the time participants enroll in the Aetna Health Connections condition management program to see their discount at the pharmacy.
