Employers are striving to make health coverage affordable and accessible while keeping costs under control. That’s why many are focusing on enhancing primary care benefits. By offering preventive services like cancer and heart disease screenings, and treating common illnesses early, businesses can help their staff avoid costly, more complex medical needs down the line. Regular visits with primary care physicians (PCPs) also ensure better care coordination, keeping everyone involved in patient care on the same page. This proactive approach supports efficient health care delivery and lowers expenses.

In Oregon, Aetna®, a CVS Health® Company, offers flexible health plans designed to make primary care easily accessible. Convenient, high-quality care is the foundation for healthier employees and smarter cost management.

Employers can champion primary care adoption, health improvement

Employer-sponsored health insurance is the largest source of coverage for working-age Americans. This puts workplaces in a unique position to promote and encourage primary care because despite its importance, people don’t use it often enough. So, by investing in easier, higher-quality primary care for their teams—like plans that include virtual visits and simple-to-access preventive and routine services — everyone wins. 

Employees stay healthier and more productive. Businesses experience less absenteeism and better workplace well-being. And all of this impacts an organization’s bottom line, particularly by lowering health care expenses.

Innovative primary care from Aetna

From industry-wide challenges with primary care to the everyday pressures on your business, Aetna is delivering simplicity. Our flexible plan designs put affordable primary care and high-touch engagement within reach while offering your business better cost management.

What’s more is that with an Aetna plan, you get access to an extensive suite of resources and solutions from our parent company, CVS Health, too. 

For instance, “anytime” and “any place” care isn’t just in demand. It also saves employees time and money. And through CVS Health Virtual Primary Care™, employees can select a PCP and see the same provider each time they need care. It’s cost effective and much more than just telemedicine because it creates trusting relationships between our members and their providers. Similarly, CVS Health Virtual Care® gives your team 24/7 treatment for episodic illnesses and injuries from the comfort of their own home (or anywhere else) with no drive time or waiting room.

Together, we’re improving health and controlling costs

At Aetna, our commitment to enhancing health doesn’t end with virtual care solutions. Our robust statewide and national network of high-quality PCPs and flexible plan options work together with other innovative products and services to help your employees bring their best selves to work. All the while, you can rest assured their care is affordable with one of many plan options that include $0 out-of-pocket primary care services. 

Our consultative support and innovative strategies for Oregon businesses and their teams go beyond benefit plan design because it takes more than just insurance coverage to achieve better health. We’re working with you toward it all—employee well-being, access to care and cost management. It’s how healthier happens together®
