Aetna Choice POS II
Point of Service Plan (POS)
Benefit Summary
This plan is NOT available to you if you are a non
U.S.-citizen on a J-1 Visa
The Point of Service (POS)
Plan features both an In-Network and Out-of-Network component. The
In-Network approach requires that members seek care through a primary
care physician and features no deductible, no claim forms, and a
copayment for office visits. The Out-of-Network portion of the plan
provides the participant with the ability to see any physician, but at a
greater cost. No pre-existing condition exclusion applies.

POS (Open Access) below it and complete the search. For more information
