What this means for you
What happens if you live in one of these counties
Aetna Medicare Signature Plus (PPO) won't cover the counties listed below in 2027. Members who live there are treated the same as members of a plan that's ending. You can choose a new plan during Annual Enrollment (October 15 – December 7, 2026). Because your plan is ending, you also get a Special Enrollment Period through February 28, 2027, and the right to buy certain Medigap policies with no health questions.
