Over the past few months, you may have put off important doctor visits or other medical care. If so, you’re not alone. According to a recent study, 58% of Americans say they’ve had to cancel or delay a health appointment due to fears of COVID-19.1
Your care needs to continue, especially if you’re facing a chronic condition or an emotional issue, or if you are pregnant. Because it’s always important to make time for you — and make #TimeForCare.
We’re here with resources and tips to help you take good care of yourself.

“While much remains unknown about COVID-19, we do know that chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes have not gone into isolation.”
VO: You’re not alone.
The pandemic has caused us all to look at life... a little differently.
And sure, it may feel lonely, but you’re. Not. Alone.
At Aetna we want you to know we’re always here for you.
Especially if you’re dealing with depression, anxiety, or any other mental health issues.
We tend to ignore these things for longer than we should.
And especially with Covid-19 disrupting life as normal, you may have ignored them too.
But you shouldn’t. You can’t.
That’s why at Aetna we’re helping with 24/7 access to counselors for one-to-one support,
Expanded telemedicine services available at no cost to you,
And on- demand digital services and tools for stress, anxiety, and other issues.
You’re not alone.
We want you to know that.
And know that it's always time for care.

Bringing Mental Health Out of the Shadows
"A silver lining of the pandemic may mean ongoing inequities of mental illness are being brought in the public spotlight."
VO: The pandemic has caused all of us to look at things… differently.
But as an expectant mother, you need to focus on you and your baby now.
And even though the pandemic has put a lot on hold.
One thing you can never overlook is your own health.
Especially if you have a high-risk pregnancy.
That’s why, at Aetna, we’re always here to help.
Because supporting the health of our members during every stage of their journey is at the center of everything we do.
Like with our Aetna Maternity Program

Taking care of your vision and oral health is critical to maintaining your overall health. Even if you feel fine, your vision and dental providers can often spot potential health issues before they become problems.

“We have all seen the devastating impact that COVID-19 has had in communities across the country. And as we’ve watched the case numbers and death toll rise, we’ve seen an unsurprising trend: The virus began to level a disproportionate blow to minority and underserved populations.”
Talk to your doctor about your concerns. Together, you can decide whether an in-person visit makes sense for you. If so, here are some of the questions you can ask:
What should I expect when I arrive at the office?
Do I need to bring my own mask?
Are staff and patients required to wear masks?
Is your staff being tested for COVID-19?
How often are the waiting rooms and offices cleaned?
Are there separate waiting areas for symptomatic and asymptomatic patients?
What should I do if I have had a cough or fever in recent days, recently traveled, or been in contact with someone who has tested positive?
If you’re more comfortable with a doctor’s visit by phone or video, learn about our telemedicine options.
Your health is important to us. So, we’re working on ways to make your care more accessible during this challenging time.
