  My insurance complaint is directed against the Humana insurance Billing and Enrollment department. Per document packet page 1, On January 15th, 2024, the Humana Billing and Enrollment department sent a letter that reads: “We recently received your request to pay your TRICARE premiums monthly through an automated deduction by Allotment from your Uniformed Services Retired pay, Electronic Funds Transfer from your checking or savings account, or a recurring Auto Charge using a credit/debit card. Unfortunately, we are unable to process your request for the following reason: Acct paid through Loss of Eligibility.” Per document packet page 2, Humana insurance payment’s history shows my October 3rd, 2024 payment of $2,812.44 dollars. Per document packet pages 3-4, my Capital One bank statement shows my $2,812.44 payment to Humana insurance with TRR (Tricare Ready Reserve) insurance plan. Per document packet page 5, the Human memorandum showing my Human plan effective date of October 3rd, 2024. Per document packet page 6, the Humana memorandum is addressed to me and identifies me being a Humana / Tricare Ready Reserve insurance member. I am requesting that Humana Military’s Billing and Enrollment section correct its record to have myself ****** ** ****, wife (****** ** ****, and daughter (********** ** ***) enrolled in the Ready Reserve insurance plan. In regards to my wife and daughter, note the Human memorandum, on document page 5, which shows myself, wife, and daughter covered under Humana / Tricare on October 3rd, 2024. ***** ** **** **** ** ****** *********** ********** ** **** **** ** ****** *********** ****** ** **** **** ** ****** ***********

  I serve in the Vermont Air National Guard and was set to end my contract in March 2024. I re-enlisted in January 2024 to keep my benefits going, namely health-insurance. I called in May 2024 to inquire about additional coverage and was told my insurance had lapsed due to my base not updating my DEERs profile to show that I had not separated from the military. I got this resolved with the base, called back 2 months later to inquire about the status of my insurance only to be told my coverage lapsed due to non-payment. This non-payment seems to have been due to my incorrect contract date not being updated but there does not seem to be a clear answer regarding this and Humana/Tricare seems to ignore or forget about my call in May 2024. I am told that due to non-payment, I am ineligible to receive military health insurance until March 2025, 7 months from now. They stated they sent me two letters via mail that I did not receive and that they sent me an email, which I have not received. I have received mail and email about my benefits and what they cover as well as other Humana/Tricare mailings but never received anything about payment issues for the account. The practice of offering military members insurance but locking them out for 12 months with NO way to appeal the arbitrary decision is so wild and unfair that I can't help but report this behavior. Even though I feel the decision is completely out of my hands, I still offered to make Humana/Tricare whole again which was met with a resounding rejection. My bill is $51 monthly, and when my Dental lapses for one reason or another, they pull it out of my base pay from the military. There were so many ways to avoid or fix this - including calling the phone number on my profile. All I want is for my insurance to be reinstated.

  Humana has failed to pay a claim for dentures. The plan provides up to $3000 coverage for initial dentures and they have not paid. Humana claims they need a narrative from the dentist stating they are initial dentures. The dentist has provided that information in writing and on the phone Mutiple times, yet Humana refuses to acknowledge they have received the information. I was present when the Dentist office called Humana and resubmitted the paperwork. Even went in person to a Humana office and didn't get any help. The phone line wait to resolve issues is quit long and then they fake a bad connection so they cannot hear you effectively.

  My family moved from the Tricare West Region to the Tricare East Region and since doing so have had multiple issues. It took over five months for my family to be seen for initial appointments by physicians due to Tricare's systems not being up to date. Now, for the last 6 months my wife has been dealing with severe medical concerns and her doctor has submitted multiple referrals only for them to be cancelled and Tricare agents to respond that they didn't see the referral or didn't get to it yet. This is absolutely unacceptable when dealing with peoples health. We are actively researching other insurance providers that actually care about the patients/customers.

  THEY DO NOT HONOR THE MILITARY, BECAUSE THEY MISTREAT THE DEPENDENTS, SPECIALLY IF THE DO NOT SPEAK ENGLISH. EVENTHOUGH I HAD A POWER ATTORNEY ON HER WILLAND WITH MEDICARE HERSELF, THEY DID NOT WANT ME TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF MY WIFE, UNLESS SHE GIVE VERBAL CONSENT, REGARDLESS IF SHE SPEAK OR UNDERSTAND ENGLISH HERSELF.I DID SEND LIKE 4 TIMES THE VERBAL CONSENT FORM AND THE LAST ONE TIME THROUGH MY AGENT. ARE THEY THAT UNPROFESSIONAL, THAT CAN EVEN FILE PROPERLY A PIECE OF PAPER? IF THEY DO NOT FIX THE ISSUE , NEXT YEAR I GO BACK TO MEDICARE STRAIGHT OR SOONER, BESIDES REPORTING THEM TO THE IG OR THE BASE, SO THEY DO NOT ACCESS THE BASE WHAT SO VER AND SO THEY DO NOT MANAGE TRICARE FOR LIFE OR TRICARE IN GENERAL, AND THAT IS A PROMISE.

  Reference Claim #**** *** *** ***** Humana has induced lengthy delays (10 months) in payment of telemedicine care with no resolution in sight. After months of waiting on agreed timelines and after numerous phone calls/online chats, the claim has not been paid and timelines not met. Currently I am on the third iteration of the latest problem (claim processed, payment adjustments made, waiting on check to be written only to discover a month later that nothing was done) and I have zero expectation that Humana will make payment this time. If you ever deal with Humana Military you will experience the arbitrary 15 and 30 day timeframes that they will not meet. I do not believe that Humana is acting in good faith and that the endless delays are intended so that the customer gives up. The number of mistakes that Humana has made during the processing of my claim cannot be coincidental, it is intentional. The claims agents, their supervisors, and the escalation team never consult their lengthy case notes which requires the customer to begin again at square one with every level you speak with. Ultimately the case notes are disregarded and Humana makes the same mistake again that you just called about. Humana Customer Service has placed me in an endless do loop of phone calls, promises of progress, and finally inaction on their part. This is systematic and intentional. designed to wear the customer down. As a customer, you cannot speak with decision makers, just their underlings that have no authority. Their web site does not have a method of filing a complaint.

  Three of our providers have been trying for months to get certified. One (***** ******* **********, in-network) has given up and thankfully just refunded me the money and is writing it off. Their address in the ******* system has an issue of some type and after repeated calls and several people, no one knew how to correct. The second is ******* ******* ** (non-network). His FL license number is not being accepted on the Provider Certification site. His practice manager has spent hours and several calls over several months but no one is able to work through the technical site issue. My daughter requires this psychiatrist's expertise in juvenile bipolar disorder because she's very hard to stabilize. We can't get any reimbursement for any charges from Jan 2023 until now. The third is **** ******* (non-network) who received a certification letter but is still not in the system. He has also spent hours working through this and still he doesn't show up and nothing has been covered. Please help. I can't talk to the Provider line, and the providers cannot spend hours on end with absolutely no progress or resolution. Please help.

  I received a letter from Humana about a month ago that they were reviewing some claims from last year that were being reviewed. The letter clearly stated there was no action required on my part. Fast forward to 1 MAR when I attempt to use my prescription benefit. After hours on the phone I learned I was disenrolled for non payment of monthly fees. This was dishonest and disingenuous. The claims that I was told I did not have to respond to were reversed and therefore I did not meet my cap as early and that is what pushed me into arrears. The issue was I was instantly disenrolled with no notification and no notification to pay. Also my miliary retiree pay is still making payments for the current year. I was pressured into immediately paying all those months even though I was paid up for current calendar year months. So Humana has stolen money from me and very rudely cancelled my coverage even though I did nothing wrong and their action caused this. They blamed it on me on the phone and were intensely rude. I want my money returned, I want an apology and I want pain and suffering for what I endured from them with this fight for coverage.

  I am rejecting this response because: The company representative called me to discuss. They promised to provide me the particular adjusted claim numbers and reasoning that caused the premiums to be reset. As of 5MAY I have not received that correspondence. They also promised to refund overpaid premiums that were demanded to restart the account.  I have yet to received those funds. In summary they have promised a lot and delivered nothing.

  10/12/2023 got a tdap vaccine in my primary care’s office. They submitted claim to Humana and it was denied saying I had to pay it first (paid bill 11/20), submit a claim form (recd 11/20), and copy of the invoice directly for reimbursement. This was done 12/3 and I received a letter 12/11 saying the vaccine was covered. On 12/15 I called and they said it was processed and DMR approved. Check mailed 12/19. On 1/10 I called to say I have not received the check. I was told I had to wait 30 days to get it reissued (so 1/19). Called again 1/24 to get reissue and a case was opened. Now they say reissue will take ANOTHER 30 days. This is unacceptable for a claim from October, so 90 days!! I request this claim be paid immediately! At this rate they should pay me interest.

  I have 2 complaints. (The second complaint is the one that made me file a complaint) The first one is that I was told by 4 Active Reserves who went through the same thing I'm going through and they said that I was eligible for TAMP coverage, which provides 180 days of premium-free transitional health care benefits. When I called Tricare, they said that I'm not eligible even though I was on "active orders" in Illinois for Bootcamp, and in Texas for A school. The second one is that I call insurance ************** on May 5 to see if they cover an eye exam and they authorized the referral on that day and an appointment on May 8 for an eye exam. (The claim number: *************** Case *****. Request number: 8L3). Insurance paid the $80 dollar to the eye doctor, ******* ******, and everything went well. Months later on August 11, I received a call from the eye doctor *************) saying that my insurance called saying that I was not eligible for the eye exam on May 8 and that they want the money back, and that I should pay the $80. I called the insurance ************** on Aug 14 and talked with ****** and the supervisor named ****** They said that I stop being eligible on May 2 but somehow they by error approved and paid for my May 8 appointment and now they want it back. I would have not done an eye exam if it was not covered by my insurance. Because of their mistakes now I have to pay $80, which I think is unfair.
