Cigna Montana: ADHD Treatment Coverage Guide

Cigna plans in Montana may cover ADHD treatment under your mental health benefits, which are protected by the federal Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA). Coverage may include psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and follow-up appointments, depending on your specific plan, deductible status, and in-network provider selection. Klarity Health offers online ADHD treatment and works with many insurance plans. You can check whether your Cigna plan may cover care at Klarity before booking.

How Cigna May Cover ADHD Treatment in Montana

Cigna offers PPO, HMO, and EPO plan options in Montana. Under the federal MHPAEA and Montana’s mental health parity statute (Mont. Code Ann. § 33-22-706), mental health benefits, including ADHD treatment, must generally be comparable to medical and surgical benefits.

Cigna uses Express Scripts (ESI) as its pharmacy benefit manager (PBM). ADHD treatment coverage through Cigna may include psychiatric evaluations, medication management visits, and prescription medications. An important coverage note: under Cigna’s PA Policy IP0477 (effective May 15, 2026), all stimulant medications for ADHD, including generic amphetamine salts and methylphenidate, require prior authorization. Patients and providers should be prepared to submit prior authorization requests for stimulant medications. Non-stimulant alternatives such as Strattera (atomoxetine) and Qelbree (viloxazine) may also require prior authorization.

Prior authorization requirements and cost-sharing details vary by plan. Contact Cigna at 1-800-244-6224 or Express Scripts at 1-800-835-3784 to verify your specific benefits.
