Please see COVID-19 Insurance Coverage Details for details of Aetna International's coverage related to the COVID-19 pandemic. 


Reliant's international health coverage is now with Aetna, beginning in January 2020. 

Aetna bundles medical, dental and vision coverage. This means that an international missionary must have all three and cannot elect to only have one or two of the options.  

For information on when international missionaries become eligible for coverage, see Eligibility and Enrollment for International Aetna Insurance.
