Cigna Group

The Cigna Group's environmental, social and governance ("ESG") framework is structured around four connected pillars that underscore our enterprise mission to improve the health and vitality of those we serve. We drive action through this framework to deliver on our ESG vision: to transform the ecosystem of health into one that is well-functioning, sustainable, accessible and equitable - advancing better health for all. Our commitment to this vision guides us in our multidimensional value-creation strategy as we strive to meet the needs of our many stakeholders. The four pillars of our ESG framework are:

Healthy Society

We advance better health for all. Building a well-functioning, sustainable, accessible and equitable health care system requires understanding and addressing social determinants of health and improving medical quality and access while lowering health risks, promoting preventive health interventions and coordinating all aspects of care. We drive progress in each of these areas by aligning our products and services with value-based care models, leveraging integrated benefits, managing drug costs through innovation, expanding digital offerings and reviewing coverage policies for health equity. We also help to eliminate barriers to care and address other factors that contribute to health disparities.

Healthy Workforce

We believe that employers play a vital role in the health care system, and we strive to be a model for others by prioritizing the health and vitality of employees within our own company. A healthy and diverse workforce is essential to achieving our mission, and we continually invest in our employees to support their health and vitality, to foster their growth and development and to further cultivate diversity and inclusion. See further discussion of this pillar within Part I, Item 1 "Human Capital Management" section above.

Healthy Environment

We believe that responsible environmental stewardship can improve health and vitality and also makes sound business sense. We strive to identify new efficiencies and make strategic investments that reduce our environmental impacts and our operating costs. In addition, we see an opportunity to positively impact the environment through ways we are advancing our business, including through our continued investment in virtual care.

Healthy Company

We have a deep and long-held commitment to strong governance as well as ethical and resilient business practices. This includes protecting the sensitive data of our clients and customers by ensuring cybersecurity incident response preparedness, as well as supporting a responsible supply chain and committing to increasing our annual diverse supplier spend.
