Aetna Whole Health will be available to businesses with employees who reside in Sacramento, San Joaquin and Yolo counties, and the benefit plans will be available in April 2015.  

“We are pleased to be a part of this new product with Aetna and Hill Physicians Medical Group,” said Joe Jasser, MD, president and CEO of Dignity Health Medical Foundation. “We look forward to collaborating and coordinating to best serve the members who select it.”
