Banner|Aetna Kitchen
For member David P., the Banner|Aetna Kitchen came along at the right time and helped him establish new exercise and eating habits he’s been able to maintain. According to David, “The whole program widened my awareness of how easy it is to fix healthy foods that taste good.” Before participating, he was pre-diabetic. Now, he’s down 20 pounds and his blood sugar levels are back to normal. “My doctor was really amazed,” David shared.

Type 2 Diabetes Reversal with Virta
“I spent years trying everything to manage my type 2 diabetes, but nothing worked,” said Banner|Aetna member and Virta success story Chris Stewart. “Then I found Virta. Along with the support of my coaches, I’ve now reversed my condition, gotten off all of my diabetes medications—saving $500+ per year on copays—and am down 110 pounds. I’m feeling incredible, and the best part is that I can truly enjoy riding BMX with my daughter again!”

98point6
When Dana, a Banner|Aetna member, became ill with an acute condition, she was initially reluctant to see a doctor. As her condition worsened, she turned to Banner|Aetna’s 98point6 virtual care for relief. The app connected her with a board-certified doctor, who diagnosed her from the comfort of her home. Sharing her experience, Dana says, “I’ve never had such an easy, pleasant experience getting care when I was sick. Within two days of taking medication, I was feeling better.”
