Cigna Group Foundation awards $250,000 to Hartford Hospital's Food4Health program. June 18, 2026 Hartford Hospital was awarded a generous $250,000 grant through The Cigna Group Health Equity Impact Fund by The Cigna Group Foundation, the philanthropic arm of The Cigna Group, to expand access to its innovative Food4Health program and reduce health disparities among underserved populations in the Hartford region. Food4Health is a prescription-based program for low-income patients experiencing food insecurity and at risk of diet-related illnesses. Participants visit the hospital's Food4Health Clinic weekly to shop for nutritious foods and recipes at no cost and receive medical guidance on healthy eating and food preparation. The clinic has had over 10,000 patient visits and distributed more than 3 million pounds of food since 2022. The Cigna Group Foundation's investment will increase access and remove barriers to Food4Health participation by providing transportation assistance, shopping carts and food delivery services to underserved patients. The program will also pilot two part-time community health workers charged with guiding Food4Health patients through transportation support, healthy lifestyle changes and access to healthcare. "Programs like Food4Health only work if people can access them," said Ellie Polack, president, The Cigna Group Foundation. "For many patients, transportation is a major barrier. As a company headquartered here in Connecticut, we're proud to support programs like this in our own community, helping more people get the food and guidance they need to improve their health." "Food4Health is changing what care can look like - bringing nutrition, clinical support and guidance together in a way that truly meets patients where they are," said Lynn B. Rossini, interim chief philanthropy officer, Hartford HealthCare, and vice president of Philanthropy at Hartford Hospital. "We're grateful to The Cigna Group Foundation for this support, which allows us to reach more patients and build the kind of lasting change that our community needs."

The Cigna Group names Brian Evanko CEO. March 3, 2026 Brian Evanko The Cigna Group (NYSE: CI) today announced that David M. Cordani will retire as chief executive officer effective July 1, 2026, and become executive chair of The Cigna Group's Board of Directors. Brian Evanko, current president and chief operating officer, will succeed Cordani as CEO. Throughout his tenure - including roles as president and chief executive officer of Cigna Healthcare and chief financial officer of The Cigna Group - Evanko has demonstrated visionary leadership and delivered consistently strong performance, while guiding the organization through periods of significant change. He currently oversees the company's business portfolio across Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth Health Services, driving transformative innovation and accelerating the use of data, technology, and AI to make health care simpler, more personalized, and more affordable. "Brian is an exceptional leader and the right person to guide The Cigna Group into its next chapter," said Cordani. "The status quo in health care today is unsustainable. By leading from the front and making meaningful changes, we have delivered sustained impact for customers and strengthened the company strategically, operationally, and financially. Now is the right time to transition leadership to build on our progress and carry our momentum forward." "David and Brian have worked together for many years, and under their leadership, The Cigna Group is defining a new era in health care, centered on delivering more personalized and affordable care," said Eric Wiseman, lead independent director of the Board of Directors. "Brian's purpose-driven, performance-focused leadership, experience across every dimension of our business, and future-focused approach uniquely position him to be the company's next CEO." "As I assume this role, I am grateful to David for his mentorship and to our Board of Directors for their trust," Evanko said. "Over my nearly 30 years with the company, I have seen firsthand the strength of our businesses, the talent of our team, and our deep commitment to serving customers and clients. I am excited to build on our strong foundation as we work to further modernize health care, expand our reach, and fuel growth." Wiseman continued, "On behalf of the Board, I want to express our gratitude for David's vision and leadership over nearly 17 years as CEO. During his tenure, David championed programs that improved affordability for customers and clients with differentiated services and capabilities. He strategically expanded and shaped the portfolio - from a traditional insurer, serving 46 million customers and generating $18 billion of annual revenue to a global health company, serving 180 million customer relationships and growing annual revenue to $275 billion. As a result of this transformation, the company's total shareholder return increased by more than 750%. We are pleased that The Cigna Group will continue to benefit from David's insights and experience as Executive Chair." Cordani and Evanko will work closely during the transition period through July 1, 2026, when Evanko will assume the role of CEO and Cordani will become Executive Chair of the Board. Cordani concluded, "Leading The Cigna Group has been the privilege of a lifetime. I am especially proud of how our team has worked to build a stronger future - not just for today, but for the next generation. By focusing on the customer, delivering value, and driving positive change, we are making a difference, one person at a time."
