Had an Aetna CVS Health plan?

Aetna left Covered California for the 2026 plan year, and its former regions include Contra Costa County. If you were enrolled with Aetna, you should have been moved or asked to pick a new plan – it is worth a quick review to make sure your doctors are in your new network.
