Medicare consumers in Belkamp, Carroll,
Hillsborough, Merrimack, Rockingham and Strafford counties now have
additional choices for their 2018 Humana Medicare Advantage
coverage
Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM) has expanded the health plan choices for
Medicare beneficiaries in six New Hampshire counties with multiple
new Humana Medicare Advantage plan offerings during the 2018
Medicare Advantage and Prescription Drug Plan Annual Enrollment
Period, or AEP.
During the AEP, which runs from Oct. 15 through Dec. 7, 2017,
Medicare beneficiaries in Belkamp, Carroll, Hillsborough,
Merrimack, Rockingham and Strafford counties can enroll in one of
several new Humana PPO Medicare plans with coverage taking effect
Jan. 1, 2018.
The new Humana Medicare Advantage PPO plans provide people with
Medicare in these New Hampshire counties with affordable
alternatives to original Medicare only, or original Medicare paired
with a Medicare Supplement plan. With these plans, members can
enjoy all the benefits of original Medicare, as well as
prescription drug coverage on most plans along with added benefits
and important financial protections.
Humana Medicare plans offer members the choice of no or low
monthly plan premiums, low co-payments for doctor visits and annual
routine physicals, coverage for most annual screenings at no
charge, a broad network of physicians, specialists and hospitals,
and emergency coverage anywhere in the world.
“Humana believes it’s important for people with Medicare to find
the right health care and wellness solutions, especially since
their needs might change as they age,” said Alexander Clague,
Regional President of Senior Products for Humana’s Northeast
Region. “We’ve listened to what people with Medicare in New
Hampshire want and used our experience in health benefits to give
them more options that fit their health needs so they can start
with healthy.”
The Humana Medicare Advantage health plans will also include
access to Humana’s nurse support service and SilverSneakers, which
provides members with memberships at participating fitness centers
and access to classes designed with the Medicare beneficiary in
mind.
Humana Medicare Advantage is an alternative to original
Medicare, not a supplement plan. For more information about

Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
