CIGNA Provides Electronic Deposit to Speed Payments to Expatriates

Philadelphia - CIGNA International Expatriate Benefits (CIEB) has introduced ePayment Plus, a new service that speeds payments for expatriates' health claims through electronic deposits to members' bank accounts. The service is available for expatriates working in the United Kingdom, Spain, Germany, France, Belgium, Canada, Portugal, Hong Kong and Singapore."This new service is designed to provide added convenience and peace of mind to our expatriate members on assignment around the world, with deposits made to our members' bank accounts in the currency of the countries where they work," says Kelley Crowley, vice president of global service operations.

The ePayment Plus service includes automatic e-mail notification of payments so members know exactly when funds are available in their accounts. The new service complements CIEB's other electronic payment options such as wire transfer and electronic funds transfer, which enable cross-border payments to be made virtually anywhere in the world.

CIEB members can quickly and easily self-enroll in ePayment Plus at the secure member Web site, http://www.cigna.com/expatriates .

CIEB is a business unit of CIGNA International, the global business division of CIGNA Corp., one of the world's largest provider of employer-sponsored insurance plans for expatriate employees and their insured family members.
