865625a Rev. 12/2014
Must I include a receipt for each service or purchase?
The IRS requires that Cigna verifies an expense as eligible before paying you back. In order to do this, you must include a
receipt or Explanation of Benefits, for each product or service you list in Box 16.
What information must the receipt or Explanation of Benefits include?
Date of Service - The date you received the service or purchased the product.
Type of Service or Purchase - A detailed description of the service or product you paid for.
Name of the Health Care Professional, Facility, or Store
Amount - The dollar amount paid for the services or product.
Can I send a photocopy of my receipt or Explanation of Benefits?
Yes. Both originals and photocopies are acceptable, as long as they include the information listed in Question 6 above.
Are there guidelines I should follow when I prepare and send receipts?
The following will help us process your reimbursement request as quickly as possible:
For mailed claims, tape store receipts smaller than 8.5" x 11" to a blank sheet of paper, so we can scan it easily.
On each receipt, circle the expenses you listed on the Reimbursement Form.
Do not use a highlighter: Items that are highlighted are often made invisible when faxed, copied or scanned into our system.
How do I know what information is "required"?
Required information is marked with an *. The more information you enter, the more quickly your claim will be paid.
I’m not sure what my account number is as asked for in Box 10. How can I get it?
If you have a Cigna medical card, the account number is listed. If not, call Customer Service at 1.800.Cigna24 (1.800.244.6224).
I received services over more than one day. Which date do I put in Box 13?
Write the first date the service was received. For example: If your hospital visit was from 3/1 to 3/5, you can enter 3/1.
Who signs the form?
The employee must sign and date the form in Box 18. Without the employee’s signature, we can’t pay you.
