New effort launches to reduce health disparities by giving eligible customers flexibility to spend their health care dollars on key living needs

To address social determinants of health barriers, Cigna Healthcare is launching a "living needs allowance" in many of its Dual-Eligible Special Needs (DSNP) plans in 2025. This allowance gives customers the flexibility to decide where to spend their dollars. Choices include such things as healthy foods, transportation and gas, utility costs and cleaning supplies.

The living needs allowance, rewards and incentives, and some other benefits are enabled through the Cigna Healthy Today flex card, which allows customers to purchase goods at around 65,000 eligible retail locations.

Affordable Prescription Drug Plans and Supplement Options

In addition to MA, Cigna Healthcare provides customers with options to meet a variety of different health needs, lifestyles, and budget goals through its Medicare Supplement and Prescription Drug Plan (PDP) options.

Medicare Supplement plans offer flexible, affordable options and, in most states, premium discounts for customers of the same household and for those who apply online. Cigna Healthcare also offers companion products, such as standalone dental plans, hospital indemnity, short-term care, and a combined plan including dental, vision, and hearing.

Medicare Supplement plans are often paired with a standalone PDP. For 2025, Cigna Healthcare offers the following PDP plans:

• Cigna Healthcare Saver Rx: This plan includes low premiums, low to $0 copays, savings on many generic drugs, and select supplemental benefits, such as prescription vitamins.
• Cigna Healthcare Assurance Rx: Available to serve customers with Extra Help or those looking for basic coverage.
• Cigna Healthcare Extra Rx: Provides flexible coverage with a large pharmacy network, savings on many generics, and select supplemental benefits, such as prescription vitamins, a high level of coverage with a robust drug list, a low deductible, and special savings with gap coverage.

All plans have $0 copay options for select medications purchased through preferred home delivery.

2025 Medicare Annual Enrollment Period

The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period begins Oct. 15 and continues through Dec. 7. Most plans purchased during AEP are effective Jan. 1, 2025.
