Honoring and supporting our Veterans

Cigna has many resources for you and your Veteran customers. We are all so grateful for our brave Veterans and their sacrifice in service of our country. For this reason, Cigna has dedicated themselves to supporting and helping our Veterans in a variety of ways. One of the ways in which they honor and support our Veterans is through their Veteran Support Line. This free service is available to any Veteran, as well as their caregivers and families, whether they are a Cigna customer or not. The Veteran Support Line is available around the clock, 365 days a year, at 855.244.6211

In addition to this free service, Cigna has created specialized Medicare Advantage plans to meet the specific needs of Veterans.

  • Enhanced over-the-counter (OTC) benefits
