About the Company

Humana

Sells Medicare health plans and runs senior clinics

Humana sells health insurance paid for by government programs, chiefly Medicare Advantage plans that private insurers run for Americans 65 and older in place of traditional Medicare. It ranks among the largest Medicare Advantage insurers in the country and also runs Medicaid plans for low-income families in several states. Its CenterWell business operates senior primary care clinics, a mail-order pharmacy and home health services, so many members get care from a company the insurer owns. Medicare and states pay Humana a set monthly amount per member, and it keeps the difference between those payments and members' medical costs. Humana was founded in 1961 as a nursing home company and is based in Louisville, Kentucky.
