Using Michigan Cigna Health Insurance for Addiction Treatment

Michigan is unique in many ways. It has the longest freshwater coastline, thanks to the 5 Great Lakes surrounding it.² It is also the only state with 2 peninsulas.²

Of the nearly 10 million people who call Michigan home, around 63,414 state residents sought substance abuse treatment at a rehab facility in 2022.^2,3 The most misused substance that Michiganders went into rehab for was alcohol and opiates.³ These facts tell us that despite the natural beauty of Michigan, people there still face considerable challenges with substance misuse.³

To begin treatment and find Cigna in-network rehab facilities, you can call American Addiction Centers (AAC) and speak with an admissions navigator for details. They will help you through the process.

Cigna is a well-established provider of health insurance for individuals and families. It is committed to helping clients with a substance misuse disorder by providing coverage for treatment.¹ When you contact a rehab facility, an Admissions Navigator will verify your Cigna insurance to determine your level of coverage before you can begin your recovery journey.

Cigna Insurance provides clients with health solutions. It works globally to provide coverage to clients by offering medical, dental, and supplemental health insurance.⁴

Over the past 230 years, Cigna has had more than 190 million customers.⁵ Cigna rehab coverage is a solution for Michiganders struggling with substance misuse.

Rehabs that take Cigna will work with the different insurance tier levels. These tier levels are:⁶

• Bronze health plan. With this level, you’ll have 60% of services covered for a lower premium cost.
• Silver health plan. This plan will cover 30% of care.
• Gold health plan. Gold-level care costs more monthly but will cover 80 % of treatment services.
