Ascension Illinois is pleased to announce it has reached new agreements with Aetna and Cigna, securing uninterrupted, in-network access to care for patients covered under their plans.
These renewed agreements ensure that individuals and families with Aetna or Cigna coverage can continue receiving high-quality care at Ascension Illinois’s hospitals, clinics and outpatient facilities without disruption.
“These agreements are more than just contracts,” said Polly Davenport, CEO of Ascension Illinois. “They are reaffirmations of our Mission to serve all with dignity and compassion. By securing fair and sustainable reimbursement, we are able to continue supporting our caregivers, strengthening our ministries, and providing high-quality, compassionate care across the communities we serve.”
Ascension Illinois extends its gratitude to our patients, caregivers and partners for their continued trust, support and patience throughout this process. The organization remains committed to building collaborative relationships with insurers to ensure access to the care people need—especially for the most vulnerable populations.
“We are grateful for the partnerships and patience of those we serve as we navigated these important agreements,” added Davenport. “Together, we will continue our healing ministry and our commitment to the health and well-being of our communities.”
