Introducing a new Aetna Medicare Advantage plan designed for Rural Carrier Benefit Plan (RCBP) retirees with Medicare Parts A and B

RCBP now offers an Aetna MedicareSM Plan (PPO). This plan offers enhanced benefits for members who have Medicare Parts A and B as their primary coverage.

How the Plan Works

You’ll have waived cost sharing for deductibles, copayments and coinsurance meaning you’ll pay nothing for most medical care. With Aetna Medicare Advantage for RCBP, members will get enhanced benefits and added programs that aren’t included with RCBP for no additional FEHB premium.

Plan Highlights

  • $900 Medicare Part B premium reduction per year for each eligible member
  • Added programs such as SilverSneakers®, Healthy Home Visits, nonemergency transportation for medical appointments, meals after a hospital stay and more, at no extra cost
  • Unlimited chiropractor visits
  • Unlimited physical, occupational and speech therapy visits
  • Low prescription copays — as low as $0 from preferred pharmacies and $2 from standard pharmacies (be sure to check the formulary to confirm your cost for your prescription)
  • Nationwide doctors (use any doctor who is eligible to receive Medicare payment)

If you are a RCBP member enrolled in Medicare Part A and/or Part B and not enrolled in the Aetna Medicare Advantage for RCBP, your prescription drug coverage is changing for 2024. Our new PDP plan will offer lower or equal to prescription copayments than your current prescription benefit.
