Cigna is a global health service company dedicated to helping people improve their health, well-being and sense of security. For more than 200 years, Cigna and its predecessor companies have been in the insurance field. In 1792, a group of Philadelphia citizens formed the Insurance Company of North America (INA), the first marine insurance company in the United States. In 1865, the Governor of Connecticut signed a special law creating Connecticut General Life Insurance Company (CG). In 1982, Cigna was formed through the combination of INA Corporation and Connecticut General Corporation. Today, Cigna continues to innovate, expand and grow globally. Our dedication to the people we serve and protect has grown with each milestone in Cigna history.
