GREENVILLE (1/8/08)—The Brody School of Medicine at East Carolina University and CIGNA Healthcare have reached an agreement that keeps the medical school in the CIGNA participating provider network.
The previous contract expired Dec. 31. Patients who were seen Dec. 31 and Jan. 1 will not incur out-of-network charges, officials said.
This agreement means approximately 5,400 patients of ECU Physicians, the faculty group practice of the Brody School of Medicine, can continue seeing their regular health care providers and receive their normal insurance coverage.
ECU and CIGNA negotiated for a year on the new contract.
CIGNA enrollees in the area include employees of the city of Greenville, Greenville Utilities and several smaller firms in the region. Enrollees will be contacted with information about the new agreement with ECU.
