Aetna seeks new ground
One Hundred Years, a global private client health management service, has collaborated with US-based Aetna, the global diversified healthcare solutions company, to offer a health programme that combines One Hundred Years’ private health advisory service with global insurance cover. Launched in the UK earlier this year, One Hundred Years provides clients with a full range of personalised health management services. A dedicated personal health advisory team helps executives reach their health and lifestyle goals by developing their health strategies and managing their healthcare needs. Available 24/7, the health advisory teams provide clients with advice and guidance on the latest medical research treatment options and facilitate access to the world’s top hospitals and specialists. Additionally, the health advisory teams are on hand to manage everyday healthcare needs, such as scheduling appointments, maintaining medical records, filing forms and co-ordinating payment of medical bills. The company’s flagship programme, Health Plan 001, offers its own comprehensive, high-touch client services along with Aetna’s international healthcare benefits. Clients have priority access to top specialists and medical centres of excellence, and also benefit from Aetna’s worldwide direct-settlement network of clinics, hospitals and other healthcare providers.

Elsewhere in the world, Aetna has formed a strategic alliance with Saudi Arabian insurer Tawuniya which means the American company will be providing healthcare services to expats living in Saudi Arabia as well as Saudi citizens living either in the Kingdom or abroad. As part of the alliance, Aetna is providing cooperative cover for roughly 80,000 Saudi students while they attend college or graduate school in the US.
