Humana, originally knows as Extendicare. Inc., was founded in 1961 by two attorneys: David A. Jones, Sr. and Wendell Cherry. Jones and Cherry initially focused their business on owning nursing homes, then in 1972 they sold their nursing homes in favor of purchasing hospitals. The change to the name Humana occurred in 1974. The new name was intended to change public perception of the company and to create a more people-focused image. In 1978 Humana took over American Medicorp Inc., doubling the size of the company. Humana developed its first health insurance plan in 1984, in response to one of the company’s hospitals losing their HMO contract. By 1993 their insurance business had grown so much that they decided to spin off their hospitals into a separate brand. Within a year that brand and the hospitals had been purchased by Hospital Corporation of America.
These are Humana's current products and state availability for 2023, as well as information on contracting and appointment.

Medicare Advantage plans provide the same benefits as Original Medicare and may include additional benefits such as prescription drug coverage, dental, vision, and wellness resources. Individuals may be eligible for a Humana Medicare Advantage plan if they’re enrolled in Original Medicare and live in the service area of a plan.
Certain Humana plans also offer caregiver support, mail-delivery pharmacies, local community centers, and SilverSneakers® fitness programs.
Medicare Advantage Plans currently offered are HMO, PPO, PFFS, and Special Needs Plans (SNPs). Many plans include Prescription Drug Coverage. Certain Medicare Advantage Plans that offer no prescription drug coverage can be coupled with a stand-alone Prescription Drug Plan. In some states, Chronic Special Needs Plans (C-SNP) and Dual Eligible Special Needs Plans (DE-SNP) are offered; all SNPs must provide Medicare Prescription Drug coverage.
Humana offers Medicare Advantage health maintenance organization (HMO) plans that include all the benefits of Original Medicare and may include prescription drug coverage and many extras.
Humana’s preferred provider organization (PPO) plans give individuals the freedom to visit any Medicare-approved doctor in or out of provider network who accepts Humana’s plan terms, but they will generally pay a lower cost share when you stay in network.
With Humana’s flexible PFFS plan, individuals can see almost any Medicare-approved doctor they choose, as long as the provider accepts the Humana Medicare Advantage PFFS Terms and Conditions of Payment. Benefits may include:
A Special Needs Plan (SNP) is a type of Medicare Advantage plan that combines all the benefits of Original Medicare (Parts A and B) with prescription drug coverage (Part D) but is only available to those individuals who have an additional qualifying condition. For example, individuals who:
