Cigna Global Individual Private Medical Insurance (IPMI) in focus:
Benefits of the Core cover &
optional modules in detail:
Cigna Global offers a true IPMI product.
IT is not a clinic subscription.
International Outpatient covers you comprehensively for outpatient care, such as consultations with specialists, prescribed outpatient drugs, pre-natal and post-natal care, physiotherapy, and much more.
International Medical Evacuation provides coverage for reasonable transportation costs to the nearest centre of medical excellence in the event that the treatment is not available locally in an emergency.
With a large global network of health providers and partners, where possible, we will arrange to pay your hospital, clinic or doctor directly.
However, if you have chosen a deductible, you must pay this amount yourself.
Cigna Global covers costs for nursing care and accommodation whilst a beneficiary is receiving inpatient or daypatient treatment; or the cost of a treatment room while a beneficiary is undergoing outpatient surgery, if one is required.
International Vision and Dental pays for the beneficiary’s routine eye examination and pays costs for spectacles and lenses.
It also covers a wide range of preventative, routine and major dental treatments.
You can access our data base of health providers for which we can arrange direct billing.
Cigna Global IPMI is a worldwide solution for globally mobile individuals who seek the highest level of care home and away.

Transferring to Cigna Global Health Options
It's very easy to transfer to Cigna from another private medical insurance plan. If you're currently with an insurer with whom we can accept business from, we may be able to cover you without any medical underwriting or additional exclusions.
Can I go anywhere in the world for treatment?
Cigna Global Health Options offers two areas of cover - Worldwide including USA and Worldwide excluding USA.
If you choose Worldwide including USA you can receive treatment anywhere in the world.
If you choose Worldwide excluding USA, you can receive treatment anywhere except in the USA.
If prior approval is obtained, but the beneficiary decides to receive treatment at a hospital, medical practitioner or clinic which is not part of the Cigna network, we will reduce any amount which we will pay by 20%.
A list of Cigna network hospitals, clinics and medical practitioners is available in your secure online Customer Area or you can contact our Customer Care Team for more information.
We realise that there may be occasions when it is not reasonably possible for treatment to be provided by a Cigna network hospital, medical practitioner or clinic.
In these cases, we will not apply any reduction to the payments we will make.
