Aetna Inc., Hartford, is targeting a new individual health care insurance plan to young adults.
Noting that adults aged 18 to 34 are the least likely group to be insured, Aetna will begin selling its new BodyGuard Plans to such individuals on Aug. 1, with rates starting at only $40 per month.
The company is offering BodyGuard in 3 price levels. The plans initially will be offered in Illinois and expanded to additional states in the future, Aetna says.
