Our new medical plan options offer something for everyone

- Preventive care services, including yearly checkups and preventive screenings (like mammograms and colonoscopies), and immunizations are all covered at 100%.
- All use Cigna’s national network of providers.

Enrolled in an HSA Plan?
If you are covering one or more family members, you must first meet the entire family deductible before the plan will begin to pay a benefit. Expenses for all covered family members contribute toward the family deductible. Once the family deductible is met, you will pay 20% of expenses for the rest of the plan year, until one individual meets the individual out of pocket maximum, or the family’s out of pocket costs in total have reached the maximum amount.

An extra dose of details on Rx costs
Medication cost limits will help you manage your drug costs. All our new plans include limits on prescription medication costs by setting a maximum amount that you pay on each type of prescription.
Network Choice and Copay plans feature new Rx savings. Both plans include a new feature that allows you to get certain specialty medications at no cost by enrolling in the PrudentRx program. The program only applies to specialty medications for chronic, progressive conditions that are included on Prudent Rx Specialty drug list.
If you enrolled in the Network Choice or Copay medical plan and currently take a specialty medication, you’ll receive a home mailing that explains this new PrudentRx program.
