Cigna Coverage for Adolescent Treatment
Silver State accepts Cigna for adolescent residential treatment for teens ages 11-17.
What Cigna Typically Covers
Cigna provides comprehensive behavioral health coverage for adolescents through most of its plan options. Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, Cigna is required to cover mental health and substance use disorder services at levels comparable to medical and surgical benefits, making adolescent treatment more accessible for families.
Cigna plans typically cover residential treatment for adolescents when clinical necessity is documented. Cigna utilizes Evernorth Behavioral Health (formerly Cigna Behavioral Health) to manage its mental health benefits, and coverage specifics depend on your individual plan.
Silver State has experience working with Cigna and Evernorth to secure treatment authorization. Our admissions team can verify your Cigna benefits and walk you through what your plan covers for adolescent behavioral health treatment.
