Cigna’s coverage varies depending on your specific plan, so check your policy details or contact Cigna directly for the most accurate information. However, several alternative medications for erectile dysfunction (ED) are often covered.
Many plans cover oral medications like:
- Tadalafil (Cialis): A longer-lasting option compared to Viagra, often available in daily doses. Avanafil (Stendra): Known for its faster onset of action. Sildenafil (Viagra): While Cigna may not always cover brand-name Viagra, they frequently cover generic sildenafil.
Beyond oral medications, some plans may also cover:
- Alprostadil: This medication is administered either as an injection directly into the penis or as a urethral suppository. Coverage for this option can be plan-specific.
For accurate coverage details:
Review your Cigna policy documents. Look for a formulary listing covered medications and their tiers. Use Cigna’s online tools. Many plans offer online portals to check coverage information for specific medications. Contact Cigna member services. They can provide personalized information regarding your specific plan’s coverage of ED medications.
Remember that pre-authorization might be necessary for some medications. Discuss options with your doctor to determine the best course of treatment and confirm Cigna’s coverage before starting any new medication.
