WOONSOCKET, R.I., Oct. 10,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Aetna®, a CVS Health® company
(NYSE: CVS), announced today that 88 percent of its Medicare
Advantage (MA) members are in 2025 Medicare Advantage Prescription
Drug (MAPD) plans that are rated 4 stars or higher (out of 5 stars)
by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
Additionally, more than two out of three (68 percent) Aetna
Medicare Advantage members are in a 4.5-star plan for 2025.
"Our excellence in 2025 Star Ratings reflects our efforts to
continuously improve how we serve our Medicare Advantage members
and help keep them healthy," said CVS Health President and CEO
Karen S. Lynch. "Our commitment to
outstanding service resulted in our highest-ever member experience
score since CMS launched the Quality Bonus Stars Program in 2012.
These results are a testament to the dedication of our team across
CVS Health and focus on what matters most to the health and
experience of our members."
Our Star Ratings success includes high-quality performance of
our largest MA contracts, covering approximately 2.9 million
