Insurance plans considered in-network
Effective May 1, 2025, UK HealthCare facilities and providers will no longer be part of Cigna Healthcare’s medical insurance network. Cigna plan participants will continue to have in-network access to UK HealthCare services through April 30, 2025, including emergency care. After that date, access to our emergency departments for emergency services will continue in accordance with the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act.
While UK HealthCare accepts all insurances, policies can vary widely. The insurance policies below are ones which are considered in-network for UK HealthCare.
