East Tennessee Children’s Hospital has reached an agreement to continue its relationship with Cigna, the hospital announced Friday. It means families using the insurance provider won’t see any interruption in coverage.
Cigna and ETCH went head-to-head at the beginning of the year, with the insurance company threatening to pull coverage on March 1, citing too high a cost supporting the specialized hospital.
In a statement, Cigna Healthcare said “We’re pleased that East Tennessee Children’s Hospital will remain in our network, and we remain committed to the health and well-being of the families we jointly serve.”
