LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - Norton Healthcare and Cigna Healthcare have reached a new agreement, effective Oct. 1.

A termination was originally scheduled for September but the two created an extension that was set to end Friday. However, an agreement was reached with no disruption.

This agreement ensures that patients with Cigna will remain in-network when receiving care at Norton Healthcare and Norton Children’s.

Norton Healthcare released a statement which read in part, “We appreciate the community’s patience throughout this process. Our focus remains on providing uninterrupted access to high-quality care. For patients who received prior notices about potential changes to coverage, no action is needed. Coverage will continue as usual.”
