Teladoc — Doctors on Demand
Teladoc provides access to a national network of U.S. board-certified doctors, pediatricians, psychologists or therapists who are available on-demand 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year to diagnose, treat and prescribe medication (when necessary) for many medical issues via phone or online video consultations. Teladoc does not replace the existing primary care physician, psychologist or therapist relationship, but enhances it as a convenient, affordable alternative for medical care.
Generally, you pay a $56 ($90 for therapist visits; $215 for initial psychologist visit and $100 for follow-up psychologist visits) copay subject to the deductible per Teladoc phone or video consultation with a physician, psychologist or therapist. After the deductible has been met, you will pay 20% of the consult, or $10, per consult. Charges for phone or video consultations with a physician, psychologist, or therapist and/or other provider who is not contracted with Aetna's Teladoc service are excluded.

Personal Health Record
Employees and covered family members enrolled in a medical program with Aetna have access to a Personal Health Record, which scans your information and compares it with the latest medical guidelines to identify potential problems and send you alerts.
When you visit the doctor, have a test or fill a prescription, the claims information gets populated automatically into your Personal Health Record. You can add important information yourself too, such as:
- Family health history;
- Immunizations;
- Doctors;
- Allergies;
- Blood pressure, weight, blood sugar and cholesterol numbers; and
- Tests, procedures and more.
There are several ways the tool can help you:
- Share it with your doctor. The "home page" of your Personal Health Record is the Health Summary. It's your health information at a glance. You can decide what to share with your doctor. You can print out your Health Summary, take it with you to your doctor, or share it securely online before your visit.
- Keep track of when you are due for important checkups. It can help remind you when to get preventive screenings, like a mammogram or colonoscopy.
- Track important health numbers. See how your blood pressure, blood sugar, weight and other health markers change over time in clear, easy-to-understand graphs and charts.
- Manage your family's health information. The Personal Health Record is available to employees who enroll in an Aetna health benefits or health insurance plan. Covered family members have their own Personal Health Records. As the plan subscriber, you can access and add information to their Personal Health Records — as long as they are under age 18. You can give your covered spouse this access, too.
