Doing business with Aetna updates Lakeland Care Payor
Doing business with Aetna updates Lakeland Care Payor Conference David Lucas Network Account Manager
Overview of Aetna Plans • Lakeland Care logo should be on ID card along with the Aetna Logo for all members that live in Berrien & Cass counties. Aetna members outside of these counties will not have the logo but are still in network with Lakeland. • Participation applies to all plans except NAP only Plans. If ‘NAP’ is the only plan type indicator on the front of the ID card, then Lakeland would not be par. • If the ID card has NAP along with another plan type (PPO, Choice POS II, Select, etc) then you are par as the additional plan indicator overrides NAP.
