The company also provides privately administered Medicare Advantage health plans in about 35 states. Though Aetna primarily provides insurance through large, employer-sponsored programs, the shifting US health care landscape has also prompted Aetna to step up its marketing efforts to individuals and small businesses in response to increasing product demand in these segments

Its UnitedHealthcare health benefits segment manages HMO, PPO, and POS (point-of-service) plans, as well as Medicare, Medicaid, state-funded, and supplemental vision and dental options.

Altogether, the UnitedHealthcare divisions and Optum health service businesses provide benefits and related services to more than 85 million individuals. UnitedHealth has prospered to become the largest US health insurer, in part, by expanding into new regions through the purchase of smaller rivals and corporate health plans. It also widens its geographic reach by establishing subsidiaries in new markets, as well as by gaining new government health coverage contracts. For instance, at the beginning of 2013, UnitedHealthcare became the new administrator for the federal TRICARE West Region health plan, which provides coverage for military personnel in the western US.



Humana


Medicare has made Humana a big-time player in the health insurance game. One of the country's largest Medicare providers and a top health insurer, Humana provides Medicare Advantage plans and prescription drug coverage to more than 5 million members throughout the US. It also administers managed care plans for other government programs, including Medicaid plans in Florida and Puerto Rico and TRICARE (a program for military personnel) in 10 southern states. Additionally, Humana offers commercial health plans and specialty (life, dental, and vision) coverage; it also provides health management services and operates outpatient care clinics. All told, it covers more than 12 million health plan members in the US. Humana has expanded the geographic reach of its Medicare plans, and now has at least one Medicare product available in every state in the US, with its largest markets located in the southern and midwestern US. Some three-fourths of Humana's sales come from government program (primarily Medicare) premiums. Most Medicare sales are made through the retail operating segment (about half of revenues), which also includes some commercial individual health plans (including HMOs and PPOs) and the company's specialty benefits unit, which provides dental, vision, life, and third-party administration services to more than 8 million customers. The employer group segment (20% of sales) sells some Medicare policies; however, the division's revenues primarily come from the sale of commercial health plans (including HMOs and PPOs) to corporate accounts on a fully-insured basis or an ASO (administrative services only) basis.
