WHAT IS COVERED

Lifestyle Management Programs

The Plan provides three optional programs which are available to all Members who participate in the Premier, Basic or Core benefit Plans. The Trustees encourage you to review the features of the programs with your physician and to participate in those that you and your physician believe would be beneficial.

Healthy Steps to Weight Loss℠: The Cigna Healthy Steps to Weight Loss℠ Lifestyle Management Program offers assistance to “at risk” Members as identified through the results of an HRA (Health Risk Assessment) questionnaire and/or self-enrollment. Members may also be referred to this program by their physicians. Wellness Coaches will use education, coaching techniques, and action planning, along with referral to Fund-based programs.

Cigna Quit Today℠: The Cigna Quit Today℠ Program educates and supports Members in their tobacco cessation efforts. Participants in the telephone program receive print materials, individual coaching calls with a dedicated wellness coach, and access to optional group coaching calls. Coaching strategies are based upon behavioral modification, motivational interviewing, and stages of change intervention techniques. Participants in the web-based program receive convenient online registration; a two-week “planning to quit” and six-week “quit for good” module; e-mails with articles of interest, online tools to use, and ways to track progress; a request form for nicotine replacement therapy; and the ability to contact a web coach via telephone.

Strength & Resilience℠: The Cigna Strength & Resilience℠ Program offers participants practical solutions for improving management of stress. The program helps participants to: (1) identify their personal stress response, (2) reduce stress at work, (3) develop strategies for improving work/life balance, (4) improve physical activity/nutrition/sleep, (5) increase their physical resilience to stress, (6) improve their time management, and (7) learn relaxation techniques and coping strategies.
