GBFollowing on from my review below… Following on from my review below regarding unpaid claims Cigna asked me to contact them which I duly did. They then replied with an email saying wait 10 days - one of these claims is at least 2 months overdue already. Cigna are depressingly bad.

PHGood Faith I live in the northern Philippines on the island of Luzon. I have been a Cigna Global Health Insurance individual policyholder for the last seven years. Last month, I was diagnosed with bladder cancer and had to have a procedure, known as a TURBT. I did it at a local out-of-network hospital near where I live. Prior to doing so, I contacted Cigna and was told that my out-of-pocket-expenses would be fully reimbursed in accordance with the terms of my policy. This was done without issue. I received the entire reimbursement, deposited directly into my bank account. It’s now a month later and I need to repeat the same procedure. This time, I will be doing it at one of the best (and, also, most expensive) hospitals in the Philippines, St. Luke’s in Quezon City, Manila. St. Luke’s is an in-network hospital that Cigna deals with directly. The cost will be twice as much as the first hospital. St. Luke’s international patient unit has been coordinating with the Cigna medical unit assigned to assist me with and, also, sign off on my treatment and hospital admittance. I am due to be admitted today. Cigna has just issued a Guarantee of Payment letter to the hospital, which relieves me of any worries about the bill being paid or my claim being denied. I felt compelled to post my Cigna experience in large part because of the overwhelming number of negative and angry comments about Cigna that have been made on this site. After reading some of those reviews during my first hospital stay, they caused me considerable anxiety and worry over what I might be facing now that I was sick and would be using my Cigna health insurance for the first time. My experience with Cigna contradicts all those negative reviews. These last six weeks have been the worst in my life. Cigna, however, deserves nothing but high praise. The company’s representatives have taken an active part in taking care of my health coverage and offering additional support, when the most precious thing I possess, my health, is being assailed. Cigna, its medical staff and customer service phone reps, have been nothing but great. I am very appreciative. Thank you.

GB3 weeks and no reimbursement Just joining the queue of people who are still owed reimbursement by Cigna. After 3 weeks, I still have no confirmation of even filing the reimbursement request. I had to call them two weeks ago for them to confirm the request is in the system. But still, no acknowledgement at all of the process. Outrageous.

GBNEVER use cigna , scam artist company NEVER use cigna. i used them because i had no other choice what a mistake that was, i was better off with nothing. their tactics to steal your money is utterly disgusting and honestly pathetic. I had health insurnace for 60$ for the first month after that they took 600$ from my account expecting me to now pay 600$ a month, even more they never sent me the paperwork to inform me about the changes until 4-5 months later. This scam artist of a company then also ontop of that put the paper for the money change not on the front page but on the back of the front page you would never see, and clipped it all together expecting you to not see that. Thankfully my bank helped me get my money back because these scam artists was trying to keep that money. Randomly trying to jack it up to 600$ that was a 60$ charge is laughable and ridiculous, not to mention without even warning or telling them until months and months later .

GBTheir customer service is the worst Their customer service is the worst! I do not recommend Cigna. It is unacceptable that Cigna take your money and don't upload to activate your dental insurance policy for >21 days. The issue is still not resolved after three, 1 hour phone calls. I was passed around many departments, because it wasn't their problem to solve. Cigna you need to do better!
