Adding new
plans to Orlando for this year’s AEP
Global health service company Cigna today announced it will add
some new plans in Orlando and will extend its highly rated Medicare
Advantage (MA) plans to the Daytona Beach and Tampa areas. The
plans will first be available during Medicare’s Annual Election
Period (AEP), which begins Oct. 15 and continues through Dec. 7.
These plans will be effective Jan. 1, 2020.
The new Orlando plans include Cigna Preferred Part B Savings, an
HMO with a $50 monthly credit toward the customer’s Medicare Part B
premium, and Cigna Primary, an HMO for those who qualify for
assistance on their drugs.
In addition to the Orlando area, Cigna’s MA plans will be
available in Brevard and Volusia counties in the Daytona Beach area
and Hernando, Hillsborough, Pasco and Pinellas counties in the
Tampa area.
Cigna’s Medicare Advantage plans in central Florida have
received five out of five Stars from Medicare based on quality and
customer satisfaction for 2020, marking the second straight year
for this achievement.
“Cigna offers a variety of Medicare Advantage plans in central
Florida. Some have no additional monthly premium at all, while
others have affordable premiums, coupled with attractive benefits
not available through traditional Medicare,” said Steve Saathoff,
Market President, North Florida Medicare Advantage. “Our robust
benefits are reinforced by an intense focus on working closely with
doctors and other health care professionals to deliver highly
personalized care.”
Cigna’s physician engagement model focuses on working with
health care professionals to tailor incentives and solutions
specific to individual needs. For patients, this means their
doctors spend time understanding their current health and
identifying potential health risks to prevent future illness. By
focusing on preventive care, Cigna can help doctors diagnose health
conditions early and create the opportunity for individuals to make
lifestyle changes to improve health outcomes.
“Cigna has offered health benefits plans to people in central
Florida through area employers for the past 40 years, and we are
pleased to now extend our Medicare Advantage offerings to more
cities this area,” said Dean Mirabella, Market President, North
Florida. “Cigna connects people to affordable, quality care from
local doctors and pharmacies, and offers many personalized and
simplified services to help improve overall health, well-being and
vitality.”
Cigna will offer four different plans in Tampa and Daytona
Beach: Cigna TotalCare, which is an HMO for people eligible for
Medicare and Medicaid, Cigna Preferred Part B Savings, Cigna
Primary, and a flagship HMO plan called Cigna Preferred. Cigna
Preferred includes the following attractive benefits:
