“We value the relationship we have built with the Humana team
over the past 11 years,” said PEIA Executive Director Ted Cheatham.
“The personal approach that Humana brings will allow us to ensure
the health and well-being of our retirees for years to come.”
PEIA has been a client of Humana’s since 2010, when the company
was initially selected to provide health insurance to the state’s
retirees.
“We are honored that Humana has again been selected to provide
health insurance to retirees in the PEIA plan for another four
years,” said Tim Snyder, Humana Senior Vice President Group
Medicare. “We remain committed to providing outstanding service and
value to retirees who dedicated their careers to serving West
Virginia and its residents.”
Humana currently serves more than 170,000 West Virginians across
the state through a variety of health plans and services, including
Medicare Advantage, Medicare prescription drug plans, Medicare
supplement, as well as TRICARE coverage for military, military
retirees, and their families.
“Our Humana team in West Virginia is thrilled to serve the
state’s Medicare-eligible retirees and to continue to provide
access to quality care from the expansive network of doctors and
hospitals that we have in place,” said Humana Regional Medicare
President Eric Bohannon. “We remain focused on delivering
exceptional levels of support through our human care approach,
which drives us to go above and beyond to exceed our members’
expectations and deliver a more human experience, while helping our
members across the state to achieve their best health.”
