Medicare Humana

by

Medicare is an essential program for millions of American seniors and people with disabilities. One of the key providers in this area is Medicare Humana, offering a variety of plans including Medicare Advantage HMO, PPO and PFFS plans, as well as a stand-alone prescription drug plan. This blog post explores the specifics of these offerings, their costs, benefits, coverage, and more.

Plan Availability and Enrollment

Before delving into the specifics, it’s crucial to note that not all Humana Medicare plans are available in every location, and costs, coverage, and benefits vary depending on your locale. Furthermore, enrollment in any Humana plan depends on contract renewal. Thus, always ensure you review the specifics of the plan available in your area and its contract status before making a decision.

Humana’s Non-Discrimination Policy

Medicare Humana abides by Federal civil rights laws and doesn’t discriminate based on a variety of factors, including race, age, disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, military or veteran status, or religion. They aim to treat everyone equally, and they provide free language interpreter services to ensure communication isn’t a barrier to accessing their services.

Specifics for Florida and Tennessee Residents

For Florida residents, Humana offers the FL Dual-Eligible Special Needs Plans, sponsored by both Humana and the State of Florida, Agency For Health Care Administration. In Tennessee, it’s essential to note that TennCare isn’t responsible for payment for the benefits offered by TN Dual-Eligible Special Needs Plans, except for appropriate cost-sharing amounts. TennCare doesn’t guarantee the availability or quality of these benefits.

Information for Ohio Residents

In Ohio, Humana offers the Humana Cleveland Clinic Preferred HMO and D-SNP plans, which come with a network of ancillary providers such as labs, durable medical equipment suppliers, and pharmacies.

Humana’s Pharmacy Network

Humana’s pharmacy network includes limited lower-cost, preferred pharmacies across a variety of urban, suburban, and rural areas. However, the lower costs advertised in their plan materials may not be available at the pharmacy you use. Always consult the online pharmacy directory at Humana.com or call Customer Care for up-to-date information about network pharmacies.

Virtual Visit Limitations

While virtual visit healthcare and prescription services provide convenience, it’s crucial to note that these services aren’t a substitute for emergency care and aren’t intended to replace your primary care provider or other providers in your network.

Out-of-Network Services and Premiums

Out-of-network/non-contracted providers aren’t obligated to treat Humana members, except in emergency situations. Therefore, understanding your plan’s cost-sharing for out-of-network services is crucial. Lastly, enrollees must continue paying their Medicare Part B premium, Humana plan premium, and Optional Supplemental Benefit (OSB) premium.

In conclusion, Medicare Humana provides a variety of plans to cater to different needs. However, understanding the specifics of these plans, including costs, coverage, benefits, and limitations, is crucial before enrollment. Always review the plan details and consult with professionals for personalized advice.
