Health Care Today
Perhaps no other aspect of American life is currently as changing and
challenging as health care. Many forces are stressing a system that must
serve and satisfy many needs. As technology makes more treatments
possible and scientific discovery makes more diseases preventable,
costs rise, and the public’s expectations rise even higher.
Aetna is — and will remain — a leader in the health care field. And
as we strengthen and restore Aetna’s abilities to provide what people
really want — more choices, more control over their health care,
efficient claims payment and clear information — we maintain a steady
focus on the future of our industry. This report underscores Aetna’s
commitment both to revitalize our company and to participate in
the reinvention of America’s health care system.
