Aetna Delays new Plan

Aetna Inc. will delay ending payments to anesthesiologists for some colonoscopies after doctors said the move could hurt patients and discourage cancer testing.

The policy was to take effect April 1. It will be held off until “patient-friendly alternatives” are approved by U.S. drug regulators, Aetna said.
