Who can join?
Individuals, families, self-employed people, association members and early retirees who buy their own coverage, including people who are not eligible for an employer plan. Thompson Benefits & Enrollment Group makes this program available to the clients and members it serves.
Is this a Thompson Benefits plan?
No. Coverage is individual. Each person joins on their own, picks their own plan, and pays their own monthly amount. Thompson Benefits & Enrollment Group makes the program available and its licensed team can walk you through it; it does not sponsor or administer benefits.
When can I sign up?
Any month. Becoming a member is a qualifying event, so you don't have to wait for open enrollment. Most people are covered within a few days of signing up.
Can I add my spouse or kids?
Yes. Family pricing is shown at plan selection, based on each person's age.
Can I keep my doctor?
Most likely. Cigna PPO and PHCS are both national networks. You can search for your doctors during onboarding, before you pick a plan, and again any time in the app.
