After months of negotiation, Lexington Health and Cigna have reached a multi-year agreement. As a result, Lexington Medical Center and affiliated physician practices will be in-network with Cigna starting July 1, 2026.
Lexington Health patients are receiving notifications via MyChart and mailed letters. Patients who previously had appointments or procedures canceled due to the system’s out-of-network status can contact their providers’ office to reschedule.
Lexington Health Chief Financial Officer Jeff Brillhart said, “Reaching a fair and sustainable agreement requires time and continued dialogue. We are pleased to have this negotiation finalized, and most importantly, we sincerely thank our patients for their trust and understanding throughout this process.”
In a statement, Cigna Healthcare said, “We are pleased to have reached agreement with Lexington Medical Center to bring them back into the Cigna network, restoring in-network access for the community we both serve. Together, we will continue efforts to improve health and vitality for our customers and their families.”
Patients with coverage or plan-specific questions are urged to contact Cigna at the phone number on the back of their insurance card.
