CommonSpirit Health’s Tennessee and Georgia facilities (formerly CHI Memorial), is back in network with Cigna Healthcare, according to an insurer statement shared with Becker’s April 3.
“We have reached an agreement that will keep CommonSpirit in our network. We look forward to continuing our work with CommonSpirit to improve the health and vitality of our customers in Tennessee and North Georgia,” the statement said.
The area’s CommonSpirit facilities include three hospitals: Memorial Hospital in Chattanooga, Memorial Hospital – Hixson (Tenn.), and Memorial Hospital – North Georgia (Ringgold). The Chattanooga Heart Institute and more than 650 physicians with the health system’s medical group will remain in network, as well.
CommonSpirit also operates 65 care sites and two outpatient imaging centers in Southeast Tennessee and North Georgia.
On Feb. 1, the facilities went out of network for individuals in Cigna’s commercial Open Access Plus PPO and its narrower-network Local Plus plan.
