This website is a vital communications link between the Aetna Retirees Association and its members. Your ARA will use it to keep members and potential members informed about the important challenges we face in defense of our retirement benefits. We believe that we must be vigilant and involved on a number of levels if we are to succeed in our mission.

Members can play an important role in this effort by staying up to date on the issues, urging former colleagues to join ARA, and making their voices heard.

Keeping promises is the stock-in-trade of any insurance company. We look to Aetna to keep the promises it made to us.
