*Plan F also has an option called a high deductible Plan F. This high deductible plan pays the same benefits as Plan F after one has paid a calendar year $2,180 deductible. Benefits from high deductible Plan F will not begin until out-of-pocket expenses exceed $2,180. Out-of-pocket expenses for this deductible are expenses that would ordinarily be paid by the policy. These expenses include the Medicare deductibles for Part A and Part B, but do not include, the Plan’s separate foreign travel emergency deductible.
PREMIUM INFORMATION
Questions? We’re here to help.Just call us at 1-800-345-6022 (TTY: 711)
We, Aetna Life Insurance Company, can only raise your premium if we raise the premium for all policies like yours in this state, when your age changes or to coincide with changes in Medicare. Aetna will send a written notice at least 31 days before the change becomes effective.
The monthly premiums shown will apply when payment is made on a quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis or if you elect to have your payments
automatically deducted from your checking account (Electronic Funds Transfer program) or credit card account. To obtain quarterly premium, multiply the monthly premium by 3. For semi-annual premium and annual premium, multiply the monthly premium by 6 or 12, respectively. If you elect to pay your premium on a monthly basis by check or money order, add $2 to the monthly premium shown to calculate your monthly premium amount.
If you use tobacco and you enroll other than during the Medicare Supplement Open Enrollment and Guaranteed issue rights periods, a tobacco use premium rate will apply. Please refer to the Guaranteed Issue Guidelines notice included in your enrollment materials for details on open enrollment and guaranteed issue rights. Tobacco use premium rates are determined by multiplying the premium shown by a factor of 1.10.

DISCLOSURES
Questions? We’re here to help.Just call us at 1-800-345-6022 (TTY: 711)
In addition, this policy contains a Pre-Existing Conditions Limitation. This policy does not pay benefits for
loss which occurs within six months after the effective date of your coverage as a result of a pre-existing
condition. A pre-existing condition is a condition for which medical advice was given or treatment was
recommended by or received from a physician within 6 months before the effective date of coverage.
Please note that pre-existing conditions will be covered after 6 months from the effective date of coverage.
This exclusion does not apply to loss which occurs more than six months after the effective date of coverage.
If you apply for this policy during the 6 month period beginning with the first of the month in which you are
eligible, and as of the date you apply you had a continuous period of Creditable Coverage of at least 6
months the pre-existing conditions limitation will not apply to you. If you apply for this policy during the 6-
month period beginning with the first of the month in which you are eligible, and as of the date you apply
you had a continuous period of Creditable Coverage of less than 6 months, the pre-existing conditions
limitation will be reduced by the aggregate of the period of Creditable Coverage applicable as of your
enrollment date.
If this policy is issued to replace another Medicare supplement policy as a result of certain situations
involving health coverage changes, the pre-existing conditions exclusion will not be applied. Some of these
situations include: personal choice; loss of the policyholder's group coverage; termination of a Medicare
Advantage program under which you were covered; termination of coverage because you moved out of the
plan's service area; the insurance company that provided you Medicare Supplement coverage went out of
business, or committed fraud.
REFUND OF PREMIUM
The policy includes a provision describing the Refund of Premium in certain circumstances. If the insured
dies or if the policy is cancelled, Aetna will refund any part of the premiums paid which applies to the period
after the date of death of the insured or the date of cancellation.
COMPLETE ANSWERS ARE VERY IMPORTANT
When you fill out the application for the new policy, be sure to answer truthfully and completely all
questions about your medical and health history. The Company may cancel your policy and refuse to pay
any claims if you leave out or falsify important medical information.
Review the application carefully before you sign it.
Be certain that all information has been properly recorded.
