Watch-outs

• Cigna ownership creates distribution channel dependency: MDLIVE is most accessible through Cigna health plan relationships and employer benefit integrations — organizations outside the Cigna ecosystem have less straightforward access to the platform.
• Urgent care telehealth only — not specialist care: MDLIVE's breadth is primarily urgent care, behavioral health, and dermatology — complex specialist care, surgical consultations, and ongoing chronic disease management require in-person care or specialized telehealth services.
• Provider network quality and availability varies by geography: MDLIVE's provider network depth varies by specialty and location — wait times for behavioral health appointments in particular can be long in some markets.
