We’re on a mission to help our members stay healthy. But life gets busy and we know it’s not easy to make healthy lifestyle choices every day. Use the tools and resources here to manage your health so you can live a longer, healthier life. And of course, be sure to talk about all of your health care concerns with your doctor.
Medical necessity guidelines are developed to determine coverage for benefits, and are published to provide a better understanding of how coverage decisions are made. We make coverage decisions using these guidelines, along with the Member’s benefit document, and in coordination with the Member’s physician(s) on a case-by-case basis considering the individual Member's health care needs.
In certain areas and for certain services, Tufts Health Plan delegates utilization management. In these situations, delegated vendor guidelines may be used to support medical necessity and other coverage determinations. If you have access to the Cigna PPO network and plan to seek services from a Cigna provider outside of MA/RI/NH then you may be subject to the Cigna medical necessity guidelines accessible below.
We’ve designed this library of disease and condition content to help you make better health decisions. You can browse health information, check your symptoms and use the decision tools to better understand health procedures, medical tests, and health issues.
