    I am very satisfied with my plan of policy from Humana. I have been in and out of the hospital over that last few years and not paid a dime out of pocket. Also when I go to my doctor there is no co pay. I understand that my policy is a little pricey but for the peace of mind it is worth it.

    I don't like having to get authorizations for all doctors and it usually will take a couple of weeks for Humana Gold HMO Orlando to approve it. Prescription plan is good and co-pays to specialists are only $10 so am saving money with this plan however you have to choose your doctors from their participation plan and a lot of the doctors I had are not on this plan. But so far the new doctors have been ok.

    A poor excuse for an insurance company. Since day one they have been charging me for plans I did not approve. Like prescription, premium and kept raising my copays every two weeks. They started out with 10 dollar copays and in a month they raised me to 45 dollars without explanation. They tried to bill me for 57 extra dollars a month for a prescription drug plan after I told them NO twice. I surely called Medicare and turned them in.

    I am my mother's in-home health care provider for the most part. She decided to get supplemental insurance. WARN YOUR PARENTS! This has been ridiculous and now I have to take the time to sort it all out. She is currently without her anti-psychotics and more importantly her chemo pill for her cancer. First the sales rep had her all scrambled up cause she kept trying to have my mother call her back. Several tries later, and finally my mom was able to sign up. Given her health, her bills are through the roof and she was so excited. That is until I went to pick up her scripts. They were denied. Out of pocket for just two of her meds is over $1800. The sales rep did not warn her or tell her she would lose her prescription coverage. Without her chemo pill, my mom will most likely end up in the hospital. This should be considered criminal and they need held accountable.

    My doctor prescribed a drug to avoid blood clotting and that would allow my continuing to have a normal diet. HUMANA denied my doctor’s order and wrote their own. All of this cost a delay of over a week now. Who’s the doctor here? The price of the two drugs are about the same. I’m still awaiting the response of HUMANA’S death panel as to whether or not the real doctor’s order might be filled. Oh, too, the last phone call was over 27 minutes and I was switched off to, I think, three different people who had no authority. I feel sorry for these HUMANA phone people who have to keep saying “No” in a pleasant tone. I’m nice, but I suspect they hear the worst from some callers. Bottom line, HUMANA = DEATH PANEL, RUN!

    Once you get established with Humana it is a fantastic company. If you have a problem they have the worst customer service representatives in the nation. It took me 16 telephone calls to 16 different customer service representatives to ever get my problem resolved. Finally, I prayed to God and put it into his hands and the next representative I talked to acted like he had some clue why he was there and what he was doing. He made an effort and then in a couple of days the problem was corrected and I haven't had any problems since then. I'm not sure whether it's inadequate training or just plain incompetence but they need to work on their customer service Representatives. I believe I could do their job right now and be more efficient. Other than this, it is a great health insurance company.

When I called Humana the rep said that her Dr. had to say she was ready. Lie LIE LIE!! They told me in all honestly she is not ready. Humana's Dr. said she was. So it will no longer pay! All that will happen is she will come home, too early and end up right back in the hospital! I have never seen such BS ever! They said that they go by Medicare's guideline... BS... Because when she had only medicare she was taken care of far better than now! They never questioned her Dr's and took care of whatever she needed. Yes we paid a small amount however we would have to pay out far more for care with Humana. Because now we have to find a way to pay a sitter and extra help.

    I enrolled in the Humana Medicare Supplement Plan G effective 3/1/20. Almost immediately the country, including my state, county and city advised seniors to stay home and avoid non-essential exposure to the virus. I am currently being treated for hypertension and my doctor has been switching my medication monthly in order to control my blood pressure, which was regularly reaching levels that would dictate emergency room treatment. I had two scheduled appointments, which were changed by my doctor to telephone appointments.

    When I received my Humana EOB I learned that Humana was not covering telehealth appointments. Just yesterday I received a survey indicating that Human had decided to cover telehealth appointments effective May 1 (after many areas had removed the shelter in place order) and only for Medicare Advantage plans - not the Medicare Supplemental plans - even though Humana's reasoning was that their Medicare Advantage customers were senior citizens. There have been numerous other problems with this plan - I was told when enrolling that my plan included the Silver Sneakers program. When I received my enrollment materials - I learned it did not. Humana has been unable to tell me how to file a claim for a medication administered in a physician's office, i.e, not from a pharmacy or hospital. It has been months trying to get this claim covered. Can't wait to switch during the open enrollment period!

    My boyfriend and I (both 71 years old) live in an area designated as poverty level. I was astounded when I first learned that people here could have a Humana Medicare Advantage Plan with NO monthly premium. Yes, co-pays are necessary, but they're reasonable, and it makes more sense to pay a fair co-pay per visit to a doctor, than to pay a huge monthly premium for something we all hope we never have to use!

    My boyfriend went through two emergency episodes within just over two years, the second of which was probably a result of the first. (This probability is under study, and we hope the results will help many other people.) Both episodes required extensive and expensive surgery, and Humana paid just as well for us as it would have for someone who was paying monthly premiums. Also, there were no cost-saving measures demanded: My boyfriend went to Mayo for both procedures. I can't think of any other insurance that does this kind of thing. More likely is paying a premium (which we could never afford), and still having to fight with the insurance regarding what is/isn't paid. I don't know how Humana decided to be such a socially responsible company, but I'm SO glad it did. I actually don't see why anyone would have any other insurance. Thank-you, Humana!

    I have been having issues getting tests needed for possible Uterine Cancer. I have been denied by four doctors already. Finally found a doctor who was willing to accept me and my insurance, and she was about to do a much needed biopsy to see if I have cancer (been waiting for this test for over a year). Even after going to this doctor all this time, the insurance suddenly won't approve the surgery. They say cuz the doctor is out of network. They took away my out of network privledges without notice. So I can't get this biopsy done to see if I have cancer and can't get my hysterectomy to cure my horrible anemia which is now destroying my liver, spleen and heart.

    I could have had the surgery on Feb 14 and possibly found much needed answers and finally not felt sick.....but thanks to Humana I have to start a search for a doctor all over again. Meanwhile dealing with illness and emotional distress due to their negligence. I do not recommend them to anyone trying to get better.

Not willing to take it lying down, I contacted the Mississippi SHIP (State Health Insurance Program) an advisory service, not sales agents. I was told that they had noticed a pattern of Humana doing that this year. He described their actions as "egregious". Advised me to call Medicare and tell them Humana broke the rules so that I was eligible for special enrollment. Medicare didn't argue, just changed me to the $13.20 per month plan.

    Updated on 3/10/2020: As many others have had occur to them, Humana changed our prescription plan from the Walmart Rx plan to the "Premier Rx Plan" without our knowledge of such staying that "the only thing changed was the name, the same meds are covered". However, they failed to tell you that the plan cost goes form $16 a month to $56 a month for the exact same coverage you had before. After many calls, several grievances files with no action, or in our case, no return call about the grievance filed - My wife found the magic solution!

    Call 1-800-MEDICARE and explain what happened with your case at Humana. We did this and within a two weeks got a call from Humana, putting us back on the Walmart RX plan and crediting us for the charges of the Premier Rx Plan. The Humana person tried placing the blame on Medicare for the problem, which I know is not true. We received our new plan cards in the mail today. This appears to be the only solution to the problem, as Humana really does not seem to care about the false and misleading process used to wrongly upgrade people into a higher cost plan for the exact same coverage as the lower cost plan.

    Original Review: We have had the Humana Walmart Basic Rx Plan PDP for the past 6 years, and it was a good value for us at $13.20 each and it has worked well for us. During this past enrollment period, we received an e-mail saying that our coverage was the same, but the plan name has been change to the "Premier" plan since the other did not exist. Thinking all was fine, we left it as was and then was very surprised to find the the Premier plan was $56 a month, each, for basically, same coverage. I went back and looked on their website, just now, and the Walmart Plan still is there for my zip code.

    I have called, spoken with customer service and been told that a lot of people are complaining about this. However, the rep could do nothing for me. I then asked to speak with someone higher up and transferred to a supervisor who said to file a grievance, and corporate would then call me back to review. About a week and a half later, I relied a call back, was told that, yes, lots of complaints for same issue. I was then transferred back to enrollment, who then ran me around in circles for about 20 minutes fast talking and told me that I should have read on page 5, I think it was, that the plan was now $56 a month. I asked why it was now that much when the Walmart plan was till in both their website and the 2020 Medicare & You booklet. No real answer, just, "This is what it is and you are now locked into it for the year" because I did not make a change during the enrollment period.

    When I asked her why then, did the notice received say the only thing changed was the plan name? No answer. Obviously, I am very dissatisfied and think this is about as close to a "Bait and Switch" aspect you are going to see. If this is how Humana plans on treating customers, then they are certainly losing me as they seem to have no real concern over customer care, or service - just about how much they can get from you. It would be great if Consumer Affairs could take some action here as this does seem to be a consistent complaint for those of us on medicare and supplemental programs.

They had told me that a reinstatement of policy was in effect (marked critical) and would be corrected with-in 78 hrs. At this time, 1-17-2020, my policy is still not reinstated.

    We two seniors had Medicare Plan D coverage in the Humana Walmart Plan for several years. For 2020 Humana automatically converted ALL of us Medicare Plan D folks in that plan to a new Premier Plan without our consent. The new plan is more than TWICE the price but offers no additional benefits. Humana sent me an email saying that 2020 info was available online. The email made no reference to change of plan. AND, I was unable to review that information as I was hospitalized and still am recovering from multiple fractures.

    In 2019 my husband and I together paid about $91 a month, but now in 2020 we pay about $160 a month. We can not afford this. Our drugs without insurance from Costco membership are only $40 a year for me and about $450 for my husband. Humana's automatic conversion Price is forcing us to cancel our Plan D insurance for 2020. Unfortunately this will cause us to incur a monthly premium penalty when we can choose a new Rx insurance plan for 2021. I took a California contract law class where I learned that an offer of a contract is not valid unless accepted. In other words Humana by automatic conversion does not have a valid contract with me for this Premier Plan. Furthermore, they still offer a Walmart Plan at the cost of less than $14 a month. The new Premier Plan is over $64 a month. Who oversees this company? Medicare? The state insurance commission? The District Attorney? Some commission on Elder financial abuse?

    When I looked up my plan in the Medicare 2020 Annual Guide, my Humana Walmart RX plan was going to be $13.**/mo. So I did not investigate any further. When I checked to confirm new premiums for the next year. I was surprised to find out Humana had switched me to a ‘new plan’. The highest premium plan they have. I have always been on the Humana Walmart Preferred RX plan. They merged the existing old Walmart plan customers into a new plan charging double the premium. Without consent! Then Humana Insurance started another “NEW” Humana Walmart RX Plan! At a low premium level!

    I've had a Humana Rx medicare (Walmart) supplemental plan for the last 2 years. Premiums were $29.60 monthly. I started the plan, even though I do not take any prescriptions, when I signed up for Medicare and considered this amount to be an investment for the future, when I would need meds. During the most recent recent plan renewal period, Humana apparently dropped the Walmart plan and automatically switched everyone over to their premier Rx plan with a whopping premium of $58 per month, almost twice the rate I was paying.

    I called when I saw the new premium amount and was told that I could have opted out during the renewal period. They said sorry, but you're stuck with the new plan for a year. How can Humana get away with doing this to seniors? Any substantial changes to any plan should be communicated directly to the customer, not buried in a publication that looks like garbage mail. Now it's going to cost me almost $700 just to stay in the plan. You're advised!!

    I have Humana Advantage Plan. So happy that I switched. My Humana location has friendly and helpful staff, complimentary coffee and tea and snacks. Offered are exercise classes to accommodate most everyone's needs, from Silver Sneakers, line dancing, strength/balance to Tai Chi and others. Educational classes are offered on regular basis. Also included is free membership to gym. My primary doctor is wonderful as are specialists. I pay zero for my Plan, except what SS deducts. With everything that is included, how could I not be pleased!

    I called and got a representative within a few days. They dressed business casual and extremely polite. The rep explained. Took about 2 hours. He did not rush and asked if I had questions. It was easy sign up and policy covers more than other insurance companies. I'm happy with their service and they answer the phone quickly as well. The plan covers a huge service area of doctors in my city.

    I have had a Humana Medicare Advantage Plan for some years. As a former insurance agent, I felt they had more experience than any other company. I wish they had more primary care physicians in my area. Using Medicare transportation has been difficult, but several companies use the same transportation. It is important to ask your PCP if they belong to management company as your specialist list will be downsized and not as listed in the directory.

    I am very satisfied!!! I've received Medicare supplement for four plus years and have had zero problems. All my medications are filled without a problem, anything not covered usually takes an approval. I'm in and out of the pharmacy within minutes. Paying a low copayment has made it easier for me to refill my medication without the need to cut back.

    Humana has been very good about making contact with providers and explaining what the need to do. My primary concern is with the drug coverage by Caremark. I have been diagnosed with a condition and one drug I take has a copay of $125.00. The antibiotic used to treat this condition was denied by Caremark so I have no medication to take.

    I have been with Humana for about four years and have received excellent service. Always easy to speak with customer service representatives for explanations for information not clear and make changes when necessary. In case of emergency you have access to a 24 hour nurse, $75.00 over the counter medication, regular pharmacy, a group matrix who come to the home to take vitals, interviews, and make sure you are doing alright, send results to your primary free of charge, get rewarded at end of year for getting shots and maintaining regular check-ups with gift cards and much more. I would recommend them for all seniors looking for insurance who go the extra mile to take care of your needs.

    I switched from AARP United Healthcare to Humana the worst worst mistake I ever made in my life. It is absolutely worst insurance on the market. I have a problem. I have to go to a doctor doctor. It takes a month to get a referral. I just went to the eye doctor. My eye has been bothering me very badly. I went the first time. Came back a second time. Finally come back to third time and saw the head eye doctor. He said, "Mr ** there is nothing wrong with your eyes. That's what I want you to get is a cat-scan and I can't do it because your primary care goes well on top of that." I have the worst Primary Care, No doctor, nothing but a party place, rude, the doctors they pick to put on their list are at the bottom of the list.

    Everywhere I Go pharmacy any doctor they said, "That's your Mana. That's your man. That's why we don't have them," so I took the doctor's written prescription to my primary care. They said, "Why don't they do it?" I said they should have to go to your primary care. Hey girl but I ain't making no scheduling no nothing. They're just too damn lazy to do it themselves. No it's Humana like I said don't believe me, don't trust me. That's why their written ratings are 1.5 compared to others. It is the worst Insurance you could possibly get as a supplement. I thought the name was good. Boy did I make a mistake. I call and talk to representative Humana. I don't like the answer I yet I call back. Get a totally different answer. I call again. I get another answer so I asked for a supervisor. It's **. How can you wait three weeks for a referral when you have a serious problem especially dealing with your ** eye?

    I had some back problem issues. They sent me the pain management. I can't make half of my pain management appointment because I've been cancelled due to lack referral information so I ask for girls to get a second opinion. Here's what they told me. You love this. Humana wants us to do is much in-house medical stuff that we can do instead of referrals. What a joke when you're dealing with a nurse practitioner near. They don't even have a doctor at this office. How can I give you a primary care physician that doesn't even have a doctor? I can't go any further because I get too upset over it but please please stay away from Humana.

    With Humana, I get a lot for a little cost. I took Humana, as I live in a small town; and it was the most widely used Medicare Supplemental Insurance. I never have a problem figuring out my insurance. If I don't understand something that has been mailed to me, I can usually check their easy-to-use website and/or call them directly. A Humana representative has always been friendly and helpful, every time. I know exactly what my procedures (such as MRI's) will cost before I do it, so there is never any surprises. I get great coverage from my PPO, even when traveling to another state. This gives me peace of mind, as I like to take my camper and travel as much as possible. I like Humana's generous over-the-counter savings. I can get numerous medical and first-aid items (band aids, vitamins, aspirin, etc.). This $50 for every quarter helps me stock up, while not having to spend my own money. A great cost saving value!

    My Mom and Dad paid $680 a month for this horrible insurance. Mom had a spinal stroke from ** usage. However, what they don’t tell you, is when you have to go to a skilled nursing facility, you are going to receive about 20 days worth of therapy to learn to walk again. I was told by a representative - “you know your Mom is never gonna walk again. The best thing you can do is take her home and pay a private sitter”. So that’s what I did. I blame Humana for the fact that after 15 months, Mom still can’t walk. I hate this insurance, and if I had the strength, I would sue them and dismember the whole company. Don’t let $3 prescriptions lure you to the kool-aid. This insurance is a scam. They are uncaring, soulless robots, who are paid to send your loved one home, who is in need of medical care. If you are not a walkie-talkie patient, they would just as soon prefer you die.

    $680 and month for 6 years is $48,960 paid in, and 20 days of SNF coverage at $600/day is $12,600. My Mom’s life and withdrawal of continuity of care was only worth $12,600. I wonder how much the CEO of Humana thinks HIS Mother’s life and continuity of care is worth? They say I brought my Mother home, I picked up the phone and cancelled Humana and changed them both back to Medicare. That in itself took about 30 phone calls, at least 100 transfers to someone else, and nearly 3 weeks of my time. It’s like trying to buy your way out of Jim Jones’s cult. Fair warning. Stay away. If you have elderly parents, PLEASE urge them to go back to straight Medicare.

    Humana is continues to write for additional/supplemental insurance. I have sent them in writing on their form all the information I have which is rather complete. However, every month they write again for the same information on the same form. I likewise have called their Customer Service and have been advised no problem. The doctor's office advised this is very characteristic of Humana and I'm not the only one that experiences this type of inconvenience. For the person looking for Medicare Supplemental Insurance, I would highly consider the slow payment of claims as you may have to pay out of your pocket as the doctor certainly would like their payment in the current year.
