LBMC Employment Partners, a leading professional employer organization based in Nashville, TN, is pleased to announce the addition of the Cigna national plan to its PEO. The Cigna addition expands LBMC Employment Partners’ Professional Employer Organization (PEO) to provide a full suite of benefit offerings to businesses headquartered outside the state of Tennessee and complements the company’s established BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee plan offered to employers based in Tennessee. The key strategic expansion allows LBMC Employment Partners, a Certified PEO and member of NAPEO, to offer competitive health insurance to companies headquartered across the U.S.

“The addition of the Cigna national plan to our suite of service offerings has been one of our key strategic initiatives for LBMC Employment Partners and our clients,” said Sharon Powlus, President/CEO, LBMC Employment Partners. “For several years, we have worked to secure a national health plan to complement our current BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee plan. We are excited to announce we finalized that plan through Cigna and are now able to sell our PEO service anywhere in the U.S.”

Through the Cigna national plan, LBMC Employment Partners will provide four medical offerings on Cigna’s largest network, along with dental and vision plans. “Our expanded national PEO will bring enhanced peace of mind to employers and employees alike. Employers can offer more competitive benefits packages, which in turn allows them to retain talent and stand out to potential recruits, and employees will have the advantage of a large network regardless of where they are located. With the hybrid workforce here to stay, offering a national plan will add even more value to the services we provide our clients,” said Powlus.
