A health insurance policy from Humana may cover flu shots, but it depends on the specific plan of coverage that you have and whether it includes a preventive medicine component. The only way to know for sure is to contact your insurance customer service representative and ask about your specific plan's benefits.
Most plans do cover some portion of immunizations and the Humana plans for Medicare beneficiaries do cover flu vaccinations.
In addition, some plans will cover the cost of the vaccine but may pay none or only some portion of the costs for the administration of the vaccination (the charges a provider may add to cover the costs of the equipment, like syringes, and the costs of the time the clinician uses to give the flu shot or other form of flu vaccination). There may also be co-payments involved for you to pay even if it is a covered service.
The Affordable Healthcare made flu shots part of preventive requirements - but, you need to make sure that you are going to a provider covered by your insurance.Members should check the back of their Humana ID card to see if they have flu vaccine coverage under their plan. If you do go to an in network provider and it will be no cost. If you don't have coverage or you go to an out of network provider Humana won't pay.
