Aetna Medicare Advantage plans look very attractive against the competition in the Philadelphia 5 county market for 2010. I look forward to watching the future of this market unfold in 2010 and beyond. Hopefully it will not be like watching a train wreck.

(at least in Philadelphia)This has not been a good market for agents and apparently not so good for providers either.

Now if someone can point out the benefit of the Premier plan vs. the Standard plan in PHL I would appreciate the input. I don’t see any cost/benefit substance in the added premium. Is the goal to move everyone off premier to standard?

Aetna will not be paying commission on PFFS sales, however, they are continuing to pay commissions for Part D, HMO and PPO business. I’ll be on a call on Friday and hope to find out what Aetna is doing in 2010 regarding any service area reductions for PFFS and general strategy for 2010 for HMO/PPO/Part D. I think they will be releasing their 2010 plans for brokers on or around August 31st.

I had an email from them about a month ago that stated no commission was going to be paid on any business with an effective date of 8/1/2009. Love the product, but acn’t afford to sell it without compensation. Please clarify. Thanks.
