Cigna Insurance Coverage

Cigna is a major healthcare insurance provider based out of Bloomfield, Connecticut. Founded in 1792 as the Insurance Company of North America, they merged with Connecticut General Life Insurance Company in 1982. They and their subsidiaries provide medical, dental, disability, life, and accident insurance, as well as Medicare and Medicaid. Discovering whether your substance abuse treatment is covered by Cigna’s rehab provider network can be a frustrating experience. Don’t worry; we at Apex Recovery San Diego have been able to aid thousands of people who have Cigna health insurance.

Cigna Drug or Alcohol Addiction Treatment Coverage

If you desire to receive treatment for drug or alcohol addiction, Cigna does cover at least a portion of their policyholder’s health care costs. So, if you have substance use issues, your doctor may suggest you receive treatment at either an inpatient or outpatient treatment program. Their recommendation may depend on the following factors:

  • The severity of your addiction
  • Your mental health
  • Your family support system
  • Your living situation
  • Your work situation
  • How you plan to pay for treatment

With Cigna insurance, many policyholders can take advantage of the health care benefits of residential (inpatient) treatment. Features and health services include:

  • Medically supervised detox
  • A substance-free and structured environment
  • 24/7 support and medical care
  • Group and individual therapy
  • Temporary relief from stress and temptation

If you struggle with any of the following substances, it is likely that Cigna will pay for at least a portion of your treatment. These substances include:

  • Alcohol
  • Benzodiazepines
  • Opiates
  • Suboxone
  • Methadone

All of these substances are characterized by a host of unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. To make matters worse, detoxification from any of these substances could be potentially fatal, especially in severe cases. For this reason, doctors will recommend that you receive treatment and assistance that is medically supervised.
