Cigna Critical Illness Insurance

You never know when you or a loved one will experience a critical illness. Critical illness insurance through Cigna pays you a one-time lump sum to help supplement the following and more:

  • Heart Attack
  • End Stage Renal (Kidney) Failure
  • Major Organ Transplant
  • Invasive Cancer
  • Stroke
You choose the benefit amount when you enroll, from $5,000 to $40,000 (in $5,000 increments). 

When you elect coverage for yourself, eligible children are automatically enrolled at 50% of the Associate amount elected. Additional family coverage is also available. 

A Health Screening Benefit is included, which pays an annual $50 incentive, per person, to you and your enrolled dependents, who receive a health screening or test (blood test, stress test, colonoscopy, chest x-ray, mammogram, biometric screening, etc.). You can even use the same annual exam from your Wellness Incentive requirements, to qualify for this benefit. 

Coverage is portable — you can take your policy with you if you change jobs or retire.
