Completely failing to answer straightforward question isn’t, apparently, limited to presidential candidates. Behold this gem, from the CIGNA Open Access Plus FAQ:

Am I covered for emergency care?

Whenever there is an emergency, seek medical help immediately. An emergency is an accident or sudden illness that a person with average knowledge of medical science believes needs to be treated right away or it could result in serious medical complications or permanent disability.

No wonder I can’t even get an answer on whether it’s an HMO, PPO, or a FWPOSBABOC*.
* Actually spelling out this expletive-laden acronym would violate someone’s sense of moral decency. Probably my mom’s.
