Knowing the Medicare Advantage (MA) Contract number of the plans your office has opt’ed into can be a big help.
Some may say what is a MA contract number? Or you may have heard it called an H number.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is responsible for identifying each Medicare Advantage C plan with a unique contract number. This number is assigned to the insurance company during the approval process. For local managed care contracts, the number begins with an ‘H’ or a ‘9″.
Below are your H numbers for the Humana-POET contract.
The next time you are in doubt about a Humana Card, look for one of these numbers on the front of the card.
Humana Gold Plus H0028-041 (HMO)
HumanaChoice Giveback H5216-358 (PPO)
Humana USAA Honor Giveback H5216-348-000-2025 (PP0) This is the only Humana Military card under the POET Contract.
This isn’t the best example of a Humana card, but you can see the H number in the bottom right hand corner.
