There are a few posts about Humana, and some are about their Medicare plans, but I’m specifically looking for anyone on their Medicare Advantage plan.

When I retired six years ago and was looking for a Medicare Advantage plan, a friend recommended Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS), so I found a broker and signed up. It costs $128 a month, and I thought that was a reasonable price for a comprehensive plan that covered medical, dental, and eye care, with a drug plan.

Last week, I got a letter from BCBS saying it was pulling out of my state (Montana), at least for their Medicare Advantage coverage, so I started looking for a replacement. The only Medicare Advantage plans available where I live are from Humana. BTW, I also looked at a Medicare Supplement plan (aka Medigap) plus a dental and eye plan, plus a drug plan, but I prefer dealing with only one company.

I called Humana, spoke to someone for an hour, and decided that, at least on paper, their Medicare Advantage plans were similar enough to BCBS’s plans to consider seriously. The closest plan to the one I currently have is $15 a month, which is much less than what I am paying now, so I went ahead and signed up. I assume I will be approved, but they said it may take a few weeks.

For anyone currently on a Humana Medicare Advantage plan, I’m curious whether you are happy with it, and if not, why not. They apparently use Centerwell as their mail-order drug company. Do you have any issues with them that I should know about?
