Overview
iCapital offers three comprehensive medical plan options that offer a range of coverage levels and costs, so you can choose the one that’s best for you and your family. These plans are administered by Cigna. You can enroll as a new hire, during Open Enrollment, or if you have a qualified life event.
Key features
Our medical plans provide:
Comprehensive, affordable coverage
for a wide range of health care services.
Free in-network preventive care
with annual physicals, recommended immunizations, and routine preventive screenings all 100% covered.
Prescription drug coverage

How much does iCapital medical coverage cost?
iCapital pays a large percentage of the cost of your medical coverage. You’ll pay the remaining amount through pretax contributions from your paycheck. The amount you pay will depend on which plan you choose and whether you cover just yourself or family members, too. You can view your plan costs as you enroll. Please note: If you cover a domestic partner and/or their children, these contributions will be made on an after-tax basis. In addition, when covering a domestic partner and/or their children, medical coverage cost is subject to imputed income.

Take a closer look at the HDHP
Combining low-premium, high-deductible coverage with a tax-free Health Savings Account (HSA) helps you save money and plan ahead for future medical expenses. This type of medical plan is often known as a consumer-directed health plan — by taking more responsibility for your actual medical and prescription costs, you’re rewarded for making healthy, cost-conscious choices. In addition, iCapital will contribute to your HSA to help cover your out-of-pocket costs — $500 for employee-only coverage or $1,000 if you cover dependents.
Transparency in coverage
The federal Transparency in Coverage Rules require certain group health plans to publicly disclose price and cost-sharing information. This information includes in-network provider rates as well as historical out-of-network allowed amounts and billed charges for covered items and services, which is to be shared via two separate machine-readable files (MRFs). The machine-readable files are formatted to allow researchers, regulators and application developers to more easily access and analyze data. The MRFs for iCapital's medical plans can be found on the Cigna website.
Prescription Drugs
When you enroll in an iCapital medical plan, you automatically receive prescription drug benefits through Cigna. Use the Cigna website or mobile app to manage your prescriptions, order refills, sign up for home delivery, and more.
Drug tiers
The cost of your prescription drugs under each medical plan depends on the tier of the medication — generic, preferred, or non-preferred. All prescription carriers have a formulary, or list of drugs based on effectiveness and cost. This list will determine how your prescriptions are covered. Keep in mind that the formulary may change as a result of regular reviews and updates. You can find the current formulary for your plan on the Cigna website.
Prescription programs
Your prescription drug benefits include several programs aimed at ensuring the most clinically appropriate and cost-effective medication use.
- Specialty medication – All prescriptions for specialty medication used to treat certain conditions (such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, or psoriasis) must be filled through the Cigna Specialty Pharmacy.
- Dispense as written (DAW) – If your doctor writes DAW on a brand-name prescription when a generic alternative is available, you will pay the brand cost. Without DAW, you would also pay the price difference between the brand and generic drug.
- Prior authorization – Some medications may require prior authorization from your doctor before receiving approval for coverage. This is done to ensure the medication is the best option for you.
- Step therapy – Step therapy requires that you try the most cost-effective medications appropriate for your condition before more expensive medications can be approved for coverage.
Pay less for your prescriptions
- Ask your doctor about generic medications. They’re generally just as effective as brand-name medications, but typically cost 80-85% less.
- Use the home delivery feature. Save time and money on maintenance medication for chronic conditions — such as an allergy, high blood pressure, or diabetes — with the convenient, cost-saving home delivery prescription program through Cigna.
Virtual Care
Save time and money while enjoying the convenience of receiving health care at home!
You have access to telehealth services through First Stop Health at no cost to you, whether you enroll in medical insurance or not. Consider using telehealth for non-emergency medical or behavioral health care — it’s available from the comfort of your home or wherever you are.
First Stop Health provides virtual urgent care services anytime, anywhere. You have 24/7 access to video consults with board-certified doctors using the First Stop Health mobile app or website. Doctors can diagnose, treat, and prescribe medication when needed for many common conditions.
Telehealth is a great option when:
- You don’t feel up to going to the doctor’s office.
- You can’t get to your doctor because you’re traveling.
- You need care after hours (nights, weekends, holidays).
Get started by registering in advance on the First Stop Health website. You can also learn about other specialty care that may be available through the First Stop Health program.
