Compare Aetna plan options, networks, and costs for Maryland residents in 2026.
Aetna is one of the largest national health insurers, now a subsidiary of CVS Health. Aetna offers marketplace and private health insurance plans across most of the country.
Aetna's CVS Health integration means Aetna members often have access to MinuteClinic locations inside CVS pharmacies for routine and urgent care at preferred rates. Aetna offers both broad network PPO plans and value-focused HMO/EPO products.
In Maryland, Aetna typically offers the following plan types through the ACA marketplace and in some cases through private (off-marketplace) channels:
Maryland uses its own state-based marketplace (Maryland Health Connection) rather than healthcare.gov.
As an independent advisor, Health Advisory LLC is not affiliated with or limited to any single carrier. In Maryland, marketplace plan options typically include:
The right carrier for you depends on your zip code, income, the physicians and hospitals you want to keep, and how frequently you use healthcare. A side-by-side comparison is the only reliable way to know which plan provides the best value for your specific situation.
Maryland operates Medicaid through Maryland Medicaid (HealthChoice). Eligibility extends to households with income up to Up to 138% FPL (~$21,000 single / $44,000 family of 4). If your income falls below the Medicaid threshold, you would be routed to Medicaid rather than receiving a marketplace subsidy. If your income is above the Medicaid threshold, you may qualify for ACA premium tax credits on a marketplace plan.
The most common mistake shoppers make is assuming the carrier name alone tells you which plan is best. In practice, a Aetna Silver plan and an Ambetter Silver plan in the same zip code can have very different premiums, deductibles, networks, and formularies. A licensed independent broker can run a side-by-side comparison of all available Maryland plans in seconds — including Aetna and every competing carrier.
Health Advisory LLC charges no fee to compare plans on your behalf. We are compensated equally by all carriers regardless of which plan you choose.
