Company patents

Cigna Intellectual Property, Inc.

Cigna Intellectual Property, Inc. appears to be significantly shifting its patent strategy, as evidenced by a dramatic decline across nearly all categories since 2023. While Healthcare Informatics remains a core area with 36.6% of its portfolio and 2 patents so far in 2026, the sharp year-over-year drops in previously dominant areas like Databases & Information Retrieval (down 100.0% in 2026) and Machine Learning & AI (down 100.0% in 2026) suggest a substantial re-evaluation or reduction in patenting activity, with only a few categories like Pattern Recognition & ML Models and Network Security & Access Control showing temporary growth in 2025 before also declining to zero so far in 2026.
