Cigna Nutrition Benefits

The NFL Player Insurance Plan covers three total visits per calendar year to receive nutritional evaluation and/or nutritional counseling sessions (subject to underlying plan copay/coinsurance). If there is underlying diagnosis for certain conditions such as diabetes, no visit maximum would apply.

As with any provider, it’s easiest if you locate someone who is in-network and familiar with how to submit claims. Access an RD in your area by logging on to mycigna.com.
