Texas Children’s is thrilled about the return of Baylor MedCare (Baylor) and CommonSprit Health/St. Luke’s to Cigna Healthcare networks. As a premiere employer focused on prioritizing your health and well-being, we work, diligently, to ensure that you have access to resources that will positively impact your lives.

Strong bonds with trusted providers are invaluable.

The agreement between Cigna and Baylor, and Cigna and St. Luke’s, allows you to partner with doctors and health care professionals within these provider networks that you feel are a best fit for you and your family. With that in mind, please note that Baylor rejoined the Cigna network, effective January 9, 2023. Please also be aware that CHI St Luke’s Health System rejoined the Cigna network, effective March 1, 2023.

Baylor and CHI St Luke’s Health staff are prepared for the change. While Cigna anticipates no challenges with your providers rejoining its network, the organization does have a support team in place to help you navigate through the re-engagement. You can reach a Cigna One Guide Advocate at 1-800-342-6664, by chat on myCigna.com or through the myCigna App.

Thank you, Texas Children’s employees, for your dedicated service to women and children. We are honored to support you with the highest quality care and services available.

In partnership with Texas Children’s Workforce Well-Being team, the Clinical Nutrition Services and Food and Nutrition Services departments will be providing education and sponsoring several exciting events throughout the month of March to showcase ways to nurture your body while shopping on a budget.

Celebrating National Nutrition Month at Texas Children’s

Food prices are on the rise, but nourishing foods are still ultimately more cost effective. Now is a great time to pick up or brush off those smart-shopping and meal-planning skills. Use the Grocery Shopping Guide and Meal Cost Comparison Breakdown in the Nutrition Toolkit to kick off the month strong. Be sure to also register for the webinar on Navigating the Grocery Store, hosted by Registered Dietitian, Staci Tobolowsky Astrein.

Week 1: Meal Planning
Week 2: Resourceful Grocery Shopping
Week 3: Learn How to Cook Healthy Meals
Week 4: Taste

We encourage you to attend the webinar and the sponsored events each week so you can take these skills and cook at least one healthy and low-cost meal this month. For each healthy meal you prepare and share, email the recipe to Wellbeing@texaschildrens.org to be entered into a raffle for a chance to win a Ninja Blender.

For more information on all the Workforce Well-Being team will be doing in the month of March, visit the National Nutrition Month site on their Sharepoint page.
