Effective July 1, 2025, a new network option, the Open Access Plus (OAP) New Jersey (NJ) Network, supports customers with Cigna Healthcare^® Garden State plan coverage. Customers with this plan coverage are required to use in-network providers with service locations in the state of New Jersey only.

With the exception of emergency services, care provided to customers with Garden State plan coverage outside of the state of New Jersey is not covered and claims will be denied. Patients will be financially responsible for paying the entire cost of the billed services out of pocket.

When making a referral for a patient with the Cigna Healthcare Garden State plan, please contact Evernorth Behavioral Health Services Provider Call Center at 800.926.2273 to find in-network physicians, hospitals, and other providers.

The sample ID card images below will help you to identify which of your patients are required to access services through the OAP NJ Network.
