Nancy Baton

Aetna Medicare Advantage Member

“Hi, my name is Nancy Baton. I am a retired New Jersey high school principal and middle school principal. And I am truly enjoying my retirement.

I live with my husband here in Westfield, New Jersey and I’ve been married to Bill, it’ll be 38 years this summer.

We have two children, grown children, and I have five grandsons. My friends are very important to me. I have one group of friends with whom I play mahjongg once a week on Fridays and another group that we play a variety of card games. Just enjoying each other’s company is what’s so important to me.

When it came time for me to enroll in Medicare, I wanted the one with the least amount of hassles and I had been told what a great health plan Aetna has. That’s why I chose Aetna and I’m very happy I did.

When I decided to go with the Aetna Medicare Advantage plan, I chose it because of the wide range of coverage and the low copays. And I found that I was not limited in my choice of doctors.

We use CVS pharmacy, it’s very convenient. They even have a drive-up window and what we like is that when our prescriptions are ready, they text us.

Every year Aetna offers the opportunity for a Healthy Home Visit. Once a year they send a nurse right here in my home and the nurse examines me and actually this year she found something. So she did a test on me and my doctor called me and said you need to see a vascular surgeon and I’m under his care. Now I never would have caught something that could be potentially very dangerous had that nurse not come to my home.

I love to walk. I recently had a spinal fusion so I’ve been unable to walk. But I’ve walked between two and five miles with a friend almost every day.

I’m recuperating now from the surgery and I had a great deal of support from Aetna because they supported what the doctor recommended and I am now in physical therapy twice a week.

And I’m really looking forward to getting rid of my back brace and just starting to walk again. Having the support of Aetna and not having to worry about bills or paperwork or is this covered, I didn’t have any of that. All I do now is concentrate on my recovery.

If you’re not healthy, you’re not going anywhere. So Aetna has helped me stay on track.”
