Aetna is advising me they are exclusive with Teladoc. Aetna member must use Teladoc, if they do not use Teladoc services will NOT be covered...

Has anyone encountered this?

Not a lot of experience yet, but each carrier can set their own rules and regulations. In general, I have found that Aetna can vary greatly depending on plan/employer. I thought most carriers were following Medicare’s lead, but I don’t have any correspondence from Aetna.
