Reminder: Providers in Priority Health’s PPO network should see all group commercial members with Cigna Healthcare and their affiliates

Through our Strategic Alliance with Cigna Healthcare, members with any employer health plan through Cigna and their affiliates are in network with Priority Health PPO providers. These members should be considered in network even if “Open Access Plus” or “OAP” does not appear on their member ID cards.   

Included plans

All Cigna group commercial members have access to the Priority Health PPO network in Michigan. These Cigna plan types include:

  • Open Access Plus® (OAP)
  • PPO
  • LocalPlus® (Members have access when traveling in Michigan.)
  • Network/POS/HMO (Members residing in Michigan or Ohio have access; all others have urgent/emergent care only.)

Members with group commercial coverage through Cigna’s other Strategic Alliance partners are also included. Common affiliates you may see include Medical Mutual of Ohio (MMO), HealthPartners, MVP Health Care and the NALC Health Benefit Plan.

Excluded plans

The following plans do not have access to Priority Health networks:

  • Individual Family Plans (IFPs) through Cigna and affiliates
  • Cigna ACA Marketplace plans through Cigna and affiliates
  • Medicare plans through Cigna and affiliates
  • SureFit®

ID cards

Cigna and Cigna-affiliated members may have the Priority Health logo on their card, depending on if they live in Michigan. However, members with qualifying plans should be seen regardless of whether the Priority Health logo appears on the card. Look for the Cigna logo in addition to one of the products that have access noted above.
