What is the policy number on an aetna insurance card

​I lost my member ID card(s). How do I get a new one?

You can request a new card online - just go to Aetna Member Services site and sign in to your account. Click on ID Card on the left-hand side of the page. You can print a copy of your temporary card online, which may be used until the new one is received. You can also call Aetna Member Services at 855-281-8858 (medical plan) or, 877-238-6200 (dental plan), and tell them you need a new ID card(s). They can order a new card for you or any member of your family as needed.

  My medical/dental insurance just started with the County. How long should I expect to wait to receive my member card(s)?

You can expect to receive your new medical and or dental card(s) in 7-10 days from the date your enrollment was first reported to Aetna; or, the date you requested a new card online. In most cases, you will receive your new ID card(s) prior to the effective date of your benefits.

What should I do if I need to see my doctor, get prescriptions filled, etc. and I haven't received my cards yet or I am waiting for a new card?

If you need to see the doctor or have a prescription filled right away, have your doctor or pharmacist call Aetna's Member Services number at 855-281-8858 to verify your coverage – they may ask you for your social security number in order to confirm your enrollment. You may also go online to Aetna Navigator and print a copy of your temporary ID card.  Please Note: If your benefits are effective and your information is NOT found on Aetna Member Services site, please call 239-533-2245 and ask for Benefits.

Where will my cards come from and how many will I get?

You will receive your cards directly from Aetna. You will receive one card for the medical plan and you will not receive a card for the dental plan. The cards will show the names of all dependents covered. 

What if I need additional cards for out-of-area dependents?

Should you desire any additional ID cards for other family members, you can request those directly from Member Services or go online to Aetna Member Services site.

Member Services questions

If you have insurance through your job or your spouse’s/partner’s job, the employer’s benefits office will give you a summary of your benefits.

Depending on your plan, you also may find the summary of benefits information on your secure member website.

If neither of these options applies to you, please contact Member Services. A representative can send you a summary of benefits.

You may call the toll-free number on your member ID card at any time. An automated telephone system will answer your call.

During regular business hours, you can ask to speak with a member services representative.

You can change your PCP through your secure member website. You also can call the toll-free number on your ID card, and follow the menu options.

If your doctor leaves the network, you will need to select another Aetna participating provider. You can use our online directory of doctors and hospitals to find one.

Contact your prior employer's benefits office and tell them you're interested in purchasing a COBRA policy. According to federal law, companies that employ more than 20 employees must make you aware of your options for purchasing this coverage.
