10. We have Humana (HMO-POS)

Sat May 18, 2024, 12:57 PM

May 2024

No co-pay to see our Primary care Dr., 35.00 co-pay for a specialist, 120.00 for emergency room, urgent care is 60.00. We haven't had to use most of the things that are covered yet. Having Humana has no out of pocket monthly charge or anything, and hubby gets all of his meds free, and he has many meds. My colonoscopy was free and my mammogram was free. I haven't been without Humana since I've been on Medicare, so I can't really compare the two, but so far we are pleased.
