CIGNA launches website to aid brokers in selecting health plans
CIGNA unveiled a new website for insurance brokers who sell health benefit plans to companies with 50 to 250 employees, to help determine which funding option will best fit their clients’ needs.
The Connecticut-based insurer said the site also offers the latest information on products and continuing education courses.
CIGNA’s funding selection tool allows brokers to answer a series of questions, including whether a client would prefer a consistent monthly payment obligation for budget planning purposes and whether their client is considering the implementation of a wellness program. Following the completion of a questionnaire, brokers are directed to learn about the funding option that best fits their client’s needs, the company said, from a selection of insured and self-insured funding options.
“Small businesses deal with unique challenges when looking at benefit plans and costs and we expect this website to be a one-stop resource for our broker partners who work with them,” said Kurt Weimer, president of CIGNA Select segment, in a statement.
Through CIGNA’s partnership with Continuing Education University (CEU), the new website also offers free, online courses on topics including ethics and HSAs, along with “The Academy by CIGNA,” a course providing information on career goals and how to increase credibility through professional development.
