Cigna Healthcare Choice Short Term Care insurance pays benefits1 when an insured individual receives care at home or in a facility for assistance with two or more Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) or for supervision due to cognitive impairment.2

Benefits are provided directly to the policyholder or someone they designate and can be used however they choose. The guaranteed renewable for life3 plan includes both Facility Care and Home Healthcare, three policy levels, and two optional riders,4 so it’s easy for your customers to select the coverage that meets their needs and budget. The simple, comprehensive plan also includes these features:

  • Facility Care and Home Healthcare are funded separately, so using one won’t impact the other, and both benefits reset once per policy lifetime.5
  • Care Transition pays for up to 10 days of the Home Healthcare benefit for assistance provided by a family member or friend if a professional isn’t available.
  • A 15% premium discount is available when both spouses purchase and are issued policies.

Best of all, it's easy for you to earn a $25 bonus for every qualifying Choice Short Term Care application you write each month through December 31, 2024, with a minimum of five Cigna Healthcare Supplemental Health product applications.6
