About Aetna
Aetna was founded in 1853 as Aetna Life Insurance Company. In 1998 it sold its individual life insurance business to Lincoln Financial Group, and today operates primarily as a health insurer under CVS Health. Aetna remains relevant for supplemental and group life coverage but no longer issues individual whole or term life policies.
What Aetna is best known for
- Group life (via CVS/Aetna)
