Institutes of Excellence
Transplant Facilities
The Aetna National Medical Excellence Program coordinates care and provides
access to covered transplant treatment through the national Institutes of
Excellence network. We have selected hospitals that have met extensive quality,
as well as cost-effectiveness criteria to participate in our Institutes of Excellence
Transplant Facilities for solid organ transplants and bone marrow transplants.
These facilities have been contracted on a transplant-specific basis and facilities
are considered participating only for the transplant type listed in this directory.
To be considered in network for coverage for transplant-related services, including
evaluation, transplant, and follow-up care, you must utilize an Institutes of
Excellence participating facility that has been specifically contracted by Aetna for
your transplant type. Services must be preauthorized with Aetna for coverage to
be effective. Any facility that is not specified as an Institutes of Excellence network
facility is considered nonparticipating or nonpreferred for transplant-related
services, even if they are considered participating for other types of services.
