  • Plan B : This covers everything in Plan A, as well as your Medicare Part A deductible.
  • Plan C : In addition to what Plan A and B covers, Plan C also covers emergency care abroad, Part A & B deductibles and also skilled nursing care coinsurance.
  • Plan F : This plan covers everything that Plan A, B, and C offers. In addition, it also covers 100% of Medicare Part B excess charges. Humana also offers a high deductible Plan F, which can lower your premiums.
  • Plans K, L and N : These plans cover a variety of medical services, but are lower premium plans because they pay only a percentage of some services and you pay the rest. They also have a maximum yearly out of pocket limit.
