With a median life expectancy of 76.7 years in Delaware, residents here have decades of potential earnings and family responsibilities ahead. Life insurance carriers vary significantly in how they serve different household profiles—some emphasize individual policies, others focus on group or supplemental coverage.The Delaware Department of Insurance oversees all carriers operating in the state, but that oversight doesn't eliminate the need to evaluate options yourself. Comparing what different insurers offer—and how those offerings match your age, income level, and family structure—is a practical first step before exploring any application.
About Aetna
Aetna, founded in 1853 and headquartered in Connecticut, holds an A financial strength rating from A.M. Best and operates as a subsidiary of CVS Health. The carrier's primary focus centers on group life and supplemental coverage products. Dover buyers should note a potential mismatch: residents in this city most commonly purchase whole life, final expense, and term policies—coverage types that fall outside Aetna's core specialty.
What Aetna is best known for
- Group life (via CVS/Aetna)
- Supplemental coverage
