CIGNA Corporation Reviews (229)

Review: March 1, 2013 I had dental work done. I have TWO full coverage dental plans. [redacted] is my primary insurance and paid their portion March 11, 2013. After contacting Cigna to inquire about the delay in processing my claim I was told by [redacted] that they were waiting for my primary insurance to pay and after reviewing the claim, SHE FOUND THAT [redacted] did pay and ensured that my claim would be resubmitted and reprocessed in 10-15 days. It is now July 24th. I called Cigna again tonight and another CIGNA rep said that Cigna was not paying the claim because [redacted] paid $534.40 to cover the balance (I had already paid $221.60 as my portion). I hung up and checked [redacted]'s website for the "supposedly $534.40 tgat the Cigna Rep claimed [redacted] paid. Lo and behold, [redacted] has not paid that amount. I called Cigna back demanding proof be sent to be that [redacted] paid $534 as Cigna claimed. Of course, now there is NO information they can find to support their claim. Cigna has repeatedly provided false information and stalled since March 11, 2013 in providing accurate and timely processing of this March 1st claim. They have shuffled me around for months claiming they are submitting the initial claim and has failed to do so as required by my employee contract. They continue to receive premium payments yet never processes any claims.Desired Settlement: To process this March 1, 2013 claim. [redacted] and electronically pay them the portion my secondary insurance is supposed to pay. Send a letter of apology so that I can send it to my credit bureaus in that their delay in processing the claim has caused the account to be referred to collections.

Review: Policy([redacted])since '98. Cigna canceled for non-payment.

I have had a policy([redacted])in effect since '98 and have always made payments on time. I moved 2 years ago and called twice to change the mailing address. Cigna said they would not change the address over the phone, I had to send it in writing. I sent 2 letters (no - I didn't keep a copy) and consistently changed the address on the return stub of the statement, also showing new address on my check. Cigna didn't change the address in system but post office continued to forward the bills and I continued to pay them. canceled for non-payment.

Apparently the post office didn't continue to forward the mail.

My father died June 17 and my brother in law died July 5th. I have been distraught and distracted. I didn't get the bill or notice it was missing. Cigna received a returned invoice on 6/25/14 stating the address was invalid. Even though I have had the policy for more than 15 years and paid consistently on time, they did not attempt to contact me but instead sent a late notice warning of cancellation (which I did not get). They then sent a letter on September 1 (which I got today with the old address on it) telling me the policy was canceled.

I called today and after 30 minutes in que (great service!) I spoke with Nicci N[redacted] today and explained that I didn't get the bills and didn't notice they were missing but that I would like to make up the payments and get the address corrected. She advised that they are not an outgoing call center and they don't call anyone when payments are late. They send a bill, a warning notice and then a cancellation only. She confirmed they did know the address was wrong and therefore I didn't see the bill or notice but said the only think I could do would be to apply for insurance again and she would send the application papers.

This is outrageous! Now that I have faithfully paid in all these years and they have gotten their money without having to pay a claim...they want me to apply for insurance again? With older insured and undoubtedly higher rates or hoops to jump through. I cannot believe this is the way they treat customers. I'm very upset and will tell everyone I know how they have treated us. Nicci was nice about it but firm in stating that was their policy and there is nothing she can do. I asked her to have a supervisor speak with me and she said none were available, someone would have to call back within 48 business hours.Desired Settlement: Reinstate the policy with the correct address and tell me what is owed to catch it up to current.

Review: cigna lied and is rejecting out claim

Cigna said we needed authorization for my son's speech therapy for reimbursement. I called them on January 15th and they said it was active as of January 1st.

Then they rejected my claim and said they could not read the claim, they told me this twice over 4 weeks

Now over a month later, they said they never ever received the authorization and to do it again. this will take weeks for them to reprocess. their person on January 15th LIED TO ME. we sent it and they said they had it.Desired Settlement: admitting their person on January 15th LIED. maybe something for my wasted time. Firing the LIAR if they know who he is.

Response:

Cigna has completed our review of this Revdex.com request and a final written resolution will be sent to the customer today, April 14, 2014.

Review: I canceled my policy via fax on 12/29/13. I deactivated the automatic draft for policy premium on the Cigna website the end of Dec - so that no further payments would be drafted from my account since I canceled the policy.

No January draft was made - so I assumed that all was taken care of.

On Feb 5, 2014 - over $2,000 was drafted from my checking account (the amount equal to 2 months of premiums). An email was sent to me - 13 days later on Feb 18, 2014 that the draft had occurred.

How did a draft occur on my account when I deactivated the account (it is still deactivated on the Cigna website - but funds where taken from my account)?

Why did it take 13 days to send me this email? Why did the email come at 8:09 pm CST - 1 hour and 9 minutes after the Service Center Closes?

Why did I have to spend 45 minutes to get to the first Customer Service Rep today - total 1.5 hours today!!!!!!!Desired Settlement: I want the money back in my account - promise to pay for any bounce check costs I might incur due to the unexpected $2100 draft.

I also want some compensation for my time - this has taken more than 2 hours today and last night to start to deal with. This has been a computer related issue on the part of Cigna - they have changed their website and reactivated and previously deactivated account (most likely to make their 1st Q Earnings look better) - who knows how many other people this has happened to - why did it take more than 45 minutes today to get to speak to the 1st Customer Service person?

We have sent a response to the customer in regard to Revdex.com# [redacted]. The response was sent today.

Review: I was issued a cigna [redacted] and had $200 for biometric test. I requested to transfer to my [redacted] acc. But money is gone.

August 16th/14 I answer to the advocate with the copies of the letters I sent to Ms. T[redacted] regarding the $200 taken without my permission to pay for bills on 04/2014 and June 2014. I on December 2014, asked to have the $200 I never used or authorized to be used by anyone, to be transfer to the new insurance [redacted] but the money was never transfer. To my surprise the money was used to pay Dr [redacted] on April (i did not have any bills with this Dr. I paid them all and never got back to her since last year).Dr [redacted] I do not recall this Dr. neither. [redacted] I did paid my deductible and never went the hospital they did sent me to "[redacted]" due to incompetence to treat me there or at least that is what they said so to me. my problem was "My heart" so they say. However I never went to the Hospital. but they collected. Ms. T[redacted] I was by [redacted] and cigna; paid for bills to Dr. [redacted], and other Dr's, even though, she answered .

[redacted] would not pay any bills on a members behalf. We do not have authorization to do so and it is not part of our practice. There must be some type of disconnect with the information you are receiving. We need details regarding your call with Cigna to further investigate. Can you please provide the date and time that you called them and any information you received from the representative and we will request that Cigna pull the call log? All this was provided.

She also said You also have the option of calling Health Advocate to assistance. Attached is their brochure. But also said I did authrorized the use of the credit card. (I NEVER EVEN ACTIVATED THE CREDIT CARD)???

They did sent to me (HEALTH ADVOCATE )documents to sign and send to them So I did SIGNED AND FAXED. But only for the dates [redacted] master card and Cigna told Me the bills were paid. This advocate department as well as Ms. T[redacted] want me to sign and do not expired the date of use OF THE AUTHORIZED paperwork I authorized. AND for the dates they want not the once I was given. I do have the right to cancel or expired the authorization on my signed paperwork. so they stop working to find out why the money was taken without my permission. I do need the case to be investigated on the dates I was told the money was taken. not the years Cigna was not anymore the Insurance for me.

I sent another email asking if they are not the agency I can go through to investigate why the money was used without my permission to let me know who I can go through, but they did not answer me anymore. I want to have that money back I never activated the card so I never authorized anyone to use the money on that credit card. And I want that money back and put on the [redacted] account which is the new Insurance.Desired Settlement: I want them to stop acting as if I did not cooperated with them I signed the paperwork they sent to me, and faxed to take care of the refund. I did not authorized the use of the funds on the [redacted] Credit Card. I am paying for hospitals what I can afford since they did investigated the first claim they did not pay for me claiming it was a pre existing condition. Since 2008 by President Obama pre existing conditions were to be covered. but oh well. no one has to pay for me as long as I am paying m

Review: My wife called in to order medication from Cigna Home Delivery Pharmacy on April 29, 2013. The copay amount should have been $25.00 for the medication. Cigna Home Delivery Pharmacy did not process the order until May 2, 2013 and charged $125.00 for the medication. I feel they waited to process the order until after my new policy kicked in on May 1, 2013 so they could charge the new $100.00 deductible. I called on May 7, 2013 and spoke to a supervisor named [redacted] and she said they could split the $125.00 charge into three equal payments of $41.66 to defer the cost. This is still costing me a $100.00 for them to wait to fill the prescription until after the plan change. I called back on May 7, 2013 and spoke to [redacted] who said she was a Subject Matter Expert and said she would remove the $100.00 dollars from the charge and I could pay the $100.00 later. This still does not resolve the issue of them wanting to charge me a $100.00 more for the medication since they waited to process the prescription.Desired Settlement: I would like for Cigna Home Delivery Pharmacy to refund the extra $100.00 dollar charge and not require me to pay it later. I feel it is their fault for waiting to process the order.

Review: Cigna provides short term disability benefits, but they make every effort to delay the approval of the claim which delays get a check issued for the consumerI believe my Claim# [redacted] was delayed purposely by the claim manager [redacted] Ext [redacted] and her manager [redacted] Ext [redacted]Contact phone# is ###-###-####They expect you to do all the work to get your benefits, but they don't have ways to verify it was received and being processed in a timely mannerI was on medical leave due to severe anxiety attacks and the stress caused by misinformation and delays in the approval and check process caused me more mental anguishAll their calls are supposed to be recorded for quality assurance so they should be able to pull the tapes
I called [redacted] Ext [redacted] Mon 4/at 11:AM to confirm she received the paperwork for the two week extension on my medical leave[redacted] said I'm sorry I was off last week and I'm behind on my clai** so the fax from your doctor could be with a different claim manager and I won't be able to confirm it has arrived for 2-business days so please call back[redacted] clai** my doctor's office/medical records department is to blame for the delays in processing my claim, but I drove to the medical records office and she showed me the fax confirmation to Cigna
I called back later that week Thurs and spoke with [redacted] Ext [redacted] and she said there was no record of medical leave extension paperwork from my doctor in my claim notes so please call back in 2-business daysShe also said the medical claim fax machine is located in a different area of the office, so when the paper work arrives it gets scanned and sent to the claim manager
I called again on 4/and spoke with [redacted] Ext [redacted] and finally I found someone who was helpfulShe said there is no paperwork in your claim file, but maybe I can help youShe had me contact the medical records department and fax it to a machine near her deskShe then contacted the medical records department directly to make sure she had all the paperwork needed to submit the claim for a medical leave extensionUnfortunately the paper work went back to [redacted] Ext [redacted]She called me Thurs 4/at 5:PM to let me know they needed more information from a different doctor to get my claim approvedWhen I called back the office was closed and her out of office stated she would be out of the office until 4/28/The following day was Good Friday and my doctor was out of town, but I called Cigna to ensure the documents were faxed to her office so she could fill them out on Monday when she returnedThe following Monday 4/my doctor called to let me know she faxed back the informationI called Cigna but no one answered at their office so maybe they were closed and forgot to turn on the messageI called back again on Tues 4/and they finally said my claim was approvedSomeone "accidentally" closed my claim due to DEATH instead of return to work, so the check was delayedThey claim the file was corrected to return to work and the check was re-issued but it never arrived
I have no money because I'm on medical leave and the Cigna short term benefits is my only source of income for weeksI called back again and left a message for [redacted] Ext [redacted] to see if the original check allegedly mailed from PA to MI on 4/had been cancelled, re-issued, and expedited to my homeThey said it was being shipped day priority 4/30, but the tracking # she provided when I called today indicates the letter won't arrive until 5/5/which is days after my rent is due! I have to pay late fees starting 5/and they keep increasing the longer you don't submit payment to the lease management companyThis has been the worst experience with a company I've ever experienced in my entire LIFE!Desired Settlement: I would like restitution for the time and stress they inflicted on me during my medical leave for severe anxietyI did all the hard work trying to get this claim processed and they kept blaming me & my doctors for delaysThey need to take responsibility for incompetent processes and claim managers causing the delaysI want to be reimbursed for my phone bill, late fees for bills, and gas money since I spent 2-hours a week during my medical leave going to the medical records department and on the phone trying to get the claim approved and check mailedI had to call Cigna on so many occasions that I used all my cell phone minutes and had to call to beg the customer service rep at [redacted] for emergency minutes so I didn't have to pay overage fees

Review: My mother passed away Nov 2012 her father 2 months before. He had left an insurance policy to my mom and my aunt. My aunt got her share. Since my mom passed away and I'm the only survivor I've taken care of all of her personal items, she was not married, I am an only child. I have had zero problems with any other companies in proving all this. I have been given 2 different Cigna workers, both only giving their first names. The latest is [redacted]. I am being told that in order to get the share due to my mom I have to provide a "small estates affidavit issued by the state of [redacted] which reference [redacted] as the underwriting company".

My mom owned nothing of value. I have her car she did not own her own home or have any jewelry etc. She died in **. I live in ** state. I called the county records about the affidavit that is being requested and I was directed to a web site. On the web site it first says that 6 months need to have passed and that the affidavit needs to be notarized. In looking at Several different affidavits in the state of ** I can find none that reference the [redacted]. I then called a local notary and asked if an affidavit from out of state can be notarized here, the answer was no.

I called [redacted] at Cigna 4 times and explained this, Always getting her voice mail, that I needed to hear from her about my options, if it had to be notarized and that I can't find any referencing what she wants. She will not call me back. I received from her in the mail a letter saying the same as before about needing the affidavit by April 13, 2013 or else they would go on the information they have on file. The sum my mom was due is $625.00. For that amount it is not practical to go to ** to file a form. If Cigna wants a specialty paper that one can not easily get then they should provide it.

My aunt filled out all the paperwork telling them all the needed info, that my mom had just one daughter and when their father had died. listing my name, her name and my moms and had it all notarized and faxed and sent in the mail. I also sent to them a form with my moms death certificate and that she had no money and owned nothing.

After calling several times and never getting a call back to help with this problem I feel they are ripping off my mom and my grandfather. He paid for the insurance. I even mentioned that if there was a problem to just give all the money to my aunt!

I still have in my possession a letter copy, notarized, to Cigna from my aunt that was returned by the post office as return to sender address unknown. I called [redacted] about that too asking if there was another address to send them. The envelope was self addressed business returned (made) by them and the address is wrong so I hope that the address I have supplied will work. I picked the closest one.Desired Settlement: I want the money owed to my mom. I want them to provide ALL the needed paperwork so I can make that happen. I want a formal apology in writing, not an email. I want them as a business to return calls in a timely manner and not ignore people.

Review: [redacted]

I am rejecting this response because:

Review: I canceled my CIGNA coverage on December 19th, medical and dental, in short because agents had lied about what doctors would actually be covered in the 2014 Health Pool Coverage. The confirmation number [redacted].Upon cancellation, I was told a refund for the actuation fee would be rendered, $115.36, within 5-7 business days. As of January 9, 2014, no refund has been issued. CIGNA is attempting to debit my account today for $35 dental coverage which was also cancelled on December 19th. I have spent over 30 hours on hold with CIGNA trying to get these matters taken care of. I was assured last week after a 4-hour call process that I would receive a call from a supervisor, which has not happened. After finding the attempted draft today, I have been on hold with the company for two hours to try and find someone that will actually help resolve the issues. They continue with empty promises, transfer to the Health Pool randomly when they can't help with the problem, and the process begins again.Desired Settlement: I would like an IMEDIATE complete refund for the cancelled policies, plus reimbursement for the gargantuan amount of time this process has taken because they cannot, will not, do what they are supposed to do. Case in point, I called CIGNA about this issue, explained the process, was put on hold and transferred once again to the Marketplace. THE MARKETPLACE DOES NOT ISSUE REFUNDS, CANCEL A DENTAL POLICY OR ANY OF THOSE MATTERS. THE MARKETPLACE CANNOT RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.

Response:

Thank you for the information. I will review the complaint and reach out to the customer directly.

Thank you,

Review: I was a customer of Cigna insurance under [redacted] City Schools (now [redacted] County Schools). I was pregnant during the term of my employment with the school system and my care was under Cigna insurance. In lost my job with the school district, but retained the insurance with Cigna in August of 2013, by paying for the service out of pocket. My purpose in doing this was to ensure that my daughter's birth was covered. I was told by several customer service representatives that my daughter would be covered by Cigna for 31 days after her birth. The Cigna website also states:

"24. Are maternity benefits covered under the CIGNA Plans? Maternity benefits are not available in most states. Complications of pregnancy are normally covered in most states. A newborn is automatically covered under the policy for 31 days and can be added to the policy during this time."

I thought it would cover at least my daughter's birth, but it did not, not even her first doctor's appointment. I called Cigna on August 6, 2013, to report that my daughter was born so that here coverage would start, I also contacted [redacted] City Schools. I was informed that she was covered for 31 days and there were no stipulations about her birth being paid for. However, on August 9, 2013, when I took my daughter to her first doctors appointment, I received a bill stating that she was not covered. I called Cigna and was told that I need to contact the school system again, which I did and she was supposed to be covered for 31 days. No were in the above statement does it say that I have to add my daughter to the Cigna insurance for her birth to be covered, but that is the story that I am getting from Cigna, and I have received two bills totaling over $6,000.00, for her hospital medical care. Cigna did not pay for anything that was under contract for my daughter and their excuse is that because she was not added to the plan, which even they say I had 31 days and the statement does not find that I have to add my daughter to Cigna but that I "can". I called Cigna several times to handle this matter but have been receiving the same computer generated statements from the customer services representatives. I payed $521.00 to maintain my insurance for my daughter's birth in the month of August 2013, because I wanted to insure that we both had coverage for at least her birth.Desired Settlement: I would like for Cigna insurance to pay the bills for my daughter's birth. She was covered for 31 days and my insurance with Cigna ended on August 31, 2013, therefore, she and I were covered. I would like Cigna to pay for my daughter's bills dated August 5, 2013 through August 10, 2013, I will cover any expenses after this date. I have copies of the bills from [redacted] and [redacted] if Cigna claims to not have them.

Review: I have a flexable spending account with my employer through Cigna Cigna Choice Fund PO Box [redacted] TN [redacted]

My card was lost and I have called to have a replacement card sent to me and have been told repeatedly that their computers are down and they can't access client information. The number I have been calling is to call if your card is lost or stolen. I have called on these days and times:

October 27 between 11 and 12 central time

October 28 between 11 and 12 central time

October 30 between 11 and 12 central time

October 31 between 11 and 12 central time

November 3 between 4 and 5 pm

November 5 1:45. I was again told that the computers were down. I called back the main cigna number and stating that I had called 6 times and could not get any information. The person I spoke to transferred me to took my information and promised a card would be sent. I asked to verify her phone number and it was the same number I have been calling since last week. But she was able to look up my information. I do not believe she took down my information, and do not believe she will send me a card for my medical flexible spending/ I have $1200.00 that I have to use before 12/31/14 or Cigna gets to keep it.Desired Settlement: All I want is to receive my FSA card

Review: I had a gynecological exam over a year ago in May 2012. They incorrectly processed a claim stating I am a male and not a female, so the claims keep getting denied. I have spoken with numerous Cigna representatives over the year attempting to get this corrected and paid with no payments made as of today.Desired Settlement: payment of services!

Business

Response:

Good day,

Written correspondence has been issued to the customer. I am working toward resolution.

Thank you.

Review: Cigna charged me almost $2,000.00 for insurance that I never used and was mis-represented to me. Their insurance broker informed me that I was signing up for a co-pay policy when that was not the case. there was a large amount of ambiguity if I was even approved for the policy. At first they said the quote they first gave was incorrect and then when I received a mailing from them I was told I was approved. After returning from a week long conference I called Cigna to confirm the coverage. When they told me that this plan was not a co-pay plan, and would cost me approximately $7,000 a year than my current one I requested to cancel the policy. But they billed me anyway even though it was only 21 days old, their broker LIED to me, and we never used ANY aspect of the service.

They said if I was 2 days earlier they would have refunded but their representative said they are a business, " they need to make money"!

For the month they billed me I paid almost $4,000 in health insurance costs. This is deplorable and they should refund me in full.Desired Settlement: We are requesting a refund as we are taking our case to the attorney general, and any other regulatory body that is available. We were mislead from the beginning, provided multiple quotes that were larger than the advertised quote, and then charged almost $2,000.00 in fees. A multi-billion dollar corporation should be forced to treat its customers or potential customers with a little more dignity. The average person cannot afford to incur such a HUGE cost and be told what I was told in regards to obtaining a refund. The customer service representatives took an immense amount of joy in regards to informing us we would not get a refund and that is is just expensive to have insurance for a family of 5 in my state.

Response:

Good day,

I’ve reviewed the file and listened to the recorded calls. I verified that the information provided by Cigna representatives was accurate and appropriate according to the selected policy. In addition, the outline of the plan was available online for review prior to the policy approval process. Furthermore, the disclaimer on the [redacted] site confirms that the rates listed are quotes and the final rate will be based on the underwriting process and the insurance company.

Written correspondence has been issued to the customer.

Thank-you.

Review: [redacted]

I am rejecting this response because:

They are LYING! I was called and told that my rate would be $1,900 per month. I rejected that over the phone. Then I was called a week later from Cigna billing and I told them I was going to most likely cancel because I was not sure this was better than my United HealthCare Plan. The representative told me to review the plans and call back and cancel if need be, and in 8 days I did just that. If they can provide the audio of the Ehealth sign up and their Cigna reps that would be telling. But if the Revdex.com lets Cigna off it is a disgrace. The Revdex.com is already tainted organization and should hold merchants to task as I did not intend to be billed for 20 days of a policy I never used and was mislead in regards to signing up. My only resource is the **. AG and [redacted].

Good day,

I spoke with the customer yesterday, April 2, 2013. The information on the customer's account has been reviewed. However, we will not be able to honor the customer's request that he receive a refund of his premium.

Thank-you.

Review: I have contacted Cigna Home Delivery Pharmacy more than once regarding sending out mail order prescriptions without my consent. They have received and continued to fill and charge my account without my permission. Last month, I had spoken to a representative requesting that NO MORE prescriptions should be filled and mailed out before prior approval from me. I must have the money in my account before they can send through a debit on my account. Cigna took it upon themselves to fill and debit my account without my permission AGAIN today. That is robbery in my eyes...taking money without my consent. I am furious regarding this matter. Not only did this happen, but I called yesterday to get my husband's ([redacted]) prescription filled, and the representative I spoke with said there was no prescription on file for him and I should contact his doctor to have the prescription refill faxed to them. I called his physician who then complied. When I spoke with Cigna today, they stated that there are two orders for his prescription on file. I am so totally frustrated with Cigna. I cannot get anywhere talking to them. I hope with your intervention, things can and will get straightened out. Thank you. Sincerely, [redacted]Desired Settlement: I want my money refunded to me for the prescriptions they said they sent without my permission as I have agreed to return the medication to them. I do not want to have to wait for my money as I need that money in my account for my bills. I also do not want them to ever take it upon themselves to fill prescriptions and take money out of my account without my permission.

Review: I had mistaken a summary of claims services for a bill and paid the amount on the summary which was $117.00. When I realized that I had made a mistake, my check had already been cashed by Cigna . I have spoken to Cigna reps several times and have been unable to obtain a refund. I have further attempted to contact the CEO of Cigna, [redacted] by mail several times and have not received a response of any kind. Never mind obtaining a refund. I am not sure what the problem is but it appears that the Cigna corporation lacks integrity from the CEO on down.Desired Settlement: A refund check in the amount of $117.00.

Business

Response:

Our final response was sent to the customer on 2/21/13. She was advised that payment was sent out to her on 3/1/12 in the amount of $117.00. Payee: [redacted] amount:$117.00

I am rejecting this response because:

A check was never received from Cigna, it is now the 9th and I still have not received a copy of the supposedly cashed check.

Review: I currently have a Healthcare Reimbursement Plan with Cigna. I was given a coupon by the Doctor's office to get a discount for [redacted]; therefore I would pay no more than $35. Due to have the Reimbursement Plan, it bypass the coupon and deducted $70 from my account. I called Cigna several times and received incorrect information on how to have the Pharmacist process the request. Example use the coupon as the primary instead of secondary. The [redacted]s Pharmacist tried and they also contacted Cigna in reference to this issue. When I finally received the correct answer I was told it takes the system 24 hours to update once a change has been made to remove the automatic deductions from the Cigna account. Due to this back and forth with Cigna -- the Pharmacist is now unable to reverse the process so that I may get the savings.Desired Settlement: I would like the difference of the $35 co-pay return to my account.

Good day,
