View company profile

Humana Inc. is dedicated to improving the health and well-being of the millions of people it serves. Our customers often navigate complex healthcare systems and face challenges in accessing affordable, high-quality care. That's why we are committed to putting health first, not just for our members, but also for our teammates and the broader communities we impact. We understand that true health encompasses more than just physical well-being; it includes emotional, social, and financial health. Therefore, we strive to offer personalized care from people who genuinely care, listening to our members' needs and creating solutions that help them achieve their best selves. Our approach is rooted in an integrated care delivery model that aims to simplify the healthcare experience, making it easier for individuals and families to get the right care at the right time.

Since our founding in 1961, initially as a nursing home company and later evolving into a leading health insurance provider, Humana has consistently adapted to meet the changing needs of the healthcare landscape. We specialize in government-sponsored programs, with a significant portion of our medical membership stemming from Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, and TRICARE. Beyond traditional insurance, Humana is increasingly focused on providing comprehensive healthcare services, including primary care, at-home care, and pharmacy benefit management through our CenterWell brand. We recognize that many of our customers, particularly seniors, are managing multiple chronic conditions. Our integrated care delivery model, which leverages both high-tech tools like data analytics and personalized, low-tech interactions such as in-home visits, allows us to predict, slow, and sometimes even prevent disease progression. We are deeply invested in the communities we serve, working to address health disparities and improve local health outcomes through initiatives like our Bold Goal, which aims to improve the health of the communities we serve by making it easier for people to achieve their best health.
