1 Potential savings estimated, based on an internal national Cigna Healthcare study conducted in 2022 comparing our LocalPlus and LocalPlus IN plans with our Open Access Plus (OAP) and Open Access Plus IN (OAPIN) plans with the same benefit structure, deductibles, copay and out-of-pocket maximum limits. Savings are not guaranteed and will vary depending on plan design, geographic distribution and utilization patterns. Medical cost savings do not directly translate to rate or premium rates.
2 Aon was independently engaged to design and perform our 2022 Value of Integration study. This book of business study leveraged a proprietary match case-control methodology, comparing those customers who share certain characteristics (age, gender, health status and benefits) but differ in terms of their medical, pharmacy and behavioral coverage.
3 Cigna Healthcare supplemented the Aon study with its own study of medical customers who have integrated Cigna Healthcare pharmacy and total behavioral health. Average annual per member per year (PMPY) –client/customer results will vary and are not guaranteed. Cigna Healthcare used a match case-control methodology developed at Harvard University to produce these statistics on different subsets of its customer population (those with particular comorbidities, those who engaged in health improvement activities, etc.).
4 Pharmacy coverage is only available with Cigna Healthcare-administered medical plans.
5 Cigna Healthcare provides access to virtual care through national telehealth providers as part of your plan. This service is separate from your health plan's network and all services may not be available in all areas; subject to state regulations.
6 Virtual dermatological visits through MDLIVE are completed via asynchronous messaging. Diagnoses requiring testing cannot be confirmed. Customers will be referred to seek in-person care.
