Review the Aetna provider directory or Aetna pharmacy directory*, based on the providers, clinics, facilities and pharmacies that are contracted with Aetna.
To search for your provider, facility or clinic, go to the Aetna provider directory.
To search for your pharmacy, go to the Aetna pharmacy directory.
All Providence-employed providers and facilities are in-network, even if you do not see them in the provider directory.
Some Providence and affiliated providers may not be listed in the provider directory as they are in the process of contracting with Aetna and will be added to the provider directory as they are contracted.
If you do not find your provider in the directory, we recommend that you call the Aetna Service Advocate team to double-check if the provider is in-network. For assistance with a provider or pharmacy directory search, call the Aetna Service Advocate team at 833-529-1661 (TTY: 711), weekdays, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Pacific Time through Dec. 31, 2024, then 24/7 beginning Jan. 1, 2025.
*Important: The provider and pharmacy directories are subject to change at any time.
If you or your enrolled family member are receiving active medical treatment that will continue into 2025 for health conditions such as cancer, transplant or the third trimester of pregnancy and your provider is not in-network with Aetna for 2025, you may be eligible for a transition of care. The Transition of Care Request form and frequently asked questions will be available at the end of November.
You can also ask your provider if they are interested in joining the Aetna network. If the provider is interested, call the Aetna Service Advocate team at 833-529-1661 (TTY: 711) to request that Aetna reach out to your provider.
The Aetna Service Advocate team will not have access to your personal information or 2025 benefits enrollment data until December 2024. However, we are able to answer plan coverage questions for the plans that will be administered by Aetna beginning Jan. 1, 2025.

Specialty medications, including Specialty-Preferred (SP-P) and Specialty-Non-Preferred (SP-NP), require a prior authorization. If the drug has an SP-P or SP-NP icon in the prescription drug formulary*, then a prior authorization will be needed. You will receive a personalized letter from Aetna regarding where you can fill your specialty medications beginning Jan. 1, 2025. There is no form to complete for a prior authorization—your provider should initiate a prior authorization request directly with Aetna CVS for pharmacy.
