If your thousand dollar claim was denied by the other driver's insurance who should you go after in small claims court?

First you need to be certain of who is legally liable for the damage. Insurance companies seldom refuse to pay damages unless the claim is unsubstantiated. If you have undisputable proof the other driver was At Fault, then you can sue that person.

In most jurisdictions you have to sue the driver/owner and not the insurance company directly. The small claims court clerk can tell you for sure. The insurance company will defend the other driver/owner and pay the claim if you win in court.

How much in dollar figures and percentages of Cigna's annual gross revenue goes to paying claims and how much of it goes to paying salaries?
While I don't have the numbers for you, for the most part the money Cigna uses to pay claims is not from their revenue at all. Most employers maintain a bank account of their funds which Cigna uses to pay claims. This is referred to as A.S.O. (administrative services only) funding. Cigna's pocketbook is not impacted by the claims paid or denied for these accounts, which make up the vast majority of their claim volume. In fact, paying a claim is less costly than denying a claim, as no one calls the insurance company regarding the claims that have been paid, just the ones denied. So the more claims denied, the more customer service agents Cigna must pay for. The financial incentive is actually to pay claims rather than to deny.
