Many doctors and hospitals are in more than one network. On the other hand, some doctors and hospitals may be in one network, but not the other. You will want to choose your insurance carrier based on whether or not your doctor, hospital or facility participates in their network. Be sure to check the networks carefully when making your decision. Providers can be added or dropped out of a network during the year. Provider directories are available on the ParTNers for Health website (partnersforhealthtn.gov) – Health Carrier drop down Online directories have the most current provider information versus a printed directory. For Cigna networks – directories are only available on the Partners for Health website or at cigna.com/stateoftn or by calling Cigna 24/7. You cannot do an online search for all of your Cigna network providers from the Cigna website www.partnersforhealthtn.gov

Health Insurance Networks Another look at your network options:   BlueCross BlueShield Network S Cigna LocalPlus New Cigna Open Access Plus (OAP) Type of Network Offered last year. Smaller network than Cigna Open Access Plus Offered last year. Smaller network. NOT Open Access Plus network. Baptist Physician Group has been added. Large network with more doctors and hospitals.
