Cigna Medicare Supplemental Insurance Plans

Seems to work flawlessly, although it’s odd that my supplement has a different deductible (higher) for the year than Medicare does. Medicare processing makes it all so easy and I get my report on payments making it clear.

This is paid for by my pension and they have been excellent during last spring serious hospitalization. There was NO large balance due after Medicare and Cigna paid the bills. I have had NO complaints from the last 5 years.

Cigna has the best plan that I researched. My RX for Inhaler was $80 cheaper than my last plan. I would recommend Cigna to any Medicare beneficiary. Never had any problems with claims. My doctor likes Cigna too.

The plan I have has several riders which made it attractive to me. It is basically an 'F' plan. Customer service answered my questions and gave us a discount because my husband & I have the same plan. My husband is a type I diabetic & coverage has been very good.

I have plan F. It has a high monthly premium but I do not pay copays and have not had to pay anything additional for out of pocket screenings or diagnostic procedures such as EMG, echocardiogram, stress ECHO, ER admission etc. I think you pay one way or the other. I prefer paying upfront. I hope the premium flattens out.

The Cigna HealthSprings lures people in with their deceptive benefit package: prescription, OTC, Vision, Fitness supplements. Their OTC is the biggest rip-off. Their OTC catalog is extremely limited; the products are mostly generic, low quality, and far overpriced (for example: a tiny package of panty liners were $12 when comparable in-store brand name is much larger in quantity and size yet only cost approximately $3). Their Vision supplement/Superior has a $200 limit on eyewear and the only vendors allowed have prices greater than $500 on eyewear. It would be much less costly if clients paid out of pocket to a Sam's Club or Costco Vision; therefore, Cigna/Superior is useless.

Most everything about Cigna has been excellent. Very few claim problems or issues and good service when there questions. The only reason I did not give them 5 stars is because of the escalated premium increases.

When I signed up last year and call Cigna Medicare nobody could find me in the system. Most employees did not know what to do either. This year they did send me some of the information and the new cards but not for the dental and nothing for the vision. I will have to contact them again and hopefully I'm in the system. It's pretty bad I will change my insurance pretty soon.

That Superior Vision is a big JOKE. Nobody takes Superior Vision thru Medicare, I called many places from what Superior Vision has on their website, nobody absolutely nobody takes those insurance, that is just a trick from Cigna, so you sign up. I am very disappointed.

My prescriptions were not delivered by the mail order pharmacy. Cigna refused to allow my prescriptions to be refilled even though I had been without them for several days. They blamed PillPack (the mail order pharmacy) for holding up Cigna's refund and said they would not authorize the local pharmacist to refill the prescription until they were reimbursed. I was on the phone for over two hours in two separate calls. The first representative was very nice and obviously was trying to contact the various departments at Cigna. The second representative kept denying that Cigna was blocking the prescription even though that is what the pharmacist told me. They want me to call back again for a third hour.
