How Cigna May Cover ADHD Treatment in Texas

Under the federal Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA), insurers such as Cigna are generally required to cover mental health conditions — including ADHD — at parity with medical and surgical benefits. Texas state mental health parity laws may also apply depending on your plan type.

Cigna plan types available in Texas include:

• PPO plans typically allow access to both in-network and out-of-network mental health providers specializing in ADHD. In-network care generally results in lower out-of-pocket costs.
• HMO plans often require patients to use in-network providers and may require a referral from a primary care physician before seeing a mental health specialist for ADHD.
• EPO plans generally cover in-network services only and may include mental health benefits for ADHD, including telehealth, depending on the specific plan.

Prior Authorization: Some Cigna plans in Texas may require prior authorization for ADHD evaluations or certain ADHD medications. Verify authorization requirements with your plan before beginning treatment.

Deductibles and Copays: Your out-of-pocket costs for ADHD treatment depend on your plan's deductible, copay, and coinsurance structure. Klarity's benefits verification tool can help clarify costs before your first visit.
