Getting the right preventive care services at the right time can help you stay healthier by:
- Preventing certain illnesses and health conditions from happening; or
- Detecting a health problem at a stage that may be easier to treat.
That’s why your Cigna plan covers designated preventive care services. When you receive care in-network, it generally is at a lower cost to you. Depending on your plan, in-network preventive care services may be covered at 100% – but be sure to check your plan materials for details about your specific medical plan. To make sure you get the care you need – without any unexpected out-of-pocket costs – it’s important for you to understand the following:

What is a preventive care service?
Preventive care services are provided when you don’t have any symptoms and haven’t been diagnosed with the health issue connected with the preventive service. For example, a flu vaccination is given to prevent the flu before you get it. Other preventive care services like mammograms can help detect an illness when there aren’t any symptoms. Even if you’re in the best shape of your life, a serious condition with no signs or symptoms may put your health at risk. During a wellness exam, you and your doctor will determine what tests and health screenings are right for you based on your age, gender, personal health history and current health.
If you have additional questions about preventive care services, talk to your doctor or call Cigna at the toll-free number on the back of your ID card.
