A large insurer is looking into the possibility of participating in the U.S. Defense Department’s TRICARE health plan.
Aetna Inc., Hartford, has appointed 2 Aetna executives and 6 external members to a new military health care advisory committee.
The committee, which includes representatives who have served in the Army, the Navy and the Air Force – and a military spouse – will help Aetna look at ways to do more business with the federal government and to evaluate “a potential bid” for the TRICARE program, Aetna says.
