Both my husband have Humana PPO ins. I have received twice now telephone calls from Humana wanting to speak to my husband. Both calls have be automated. I answer the questions telling them my husband was not nome. They never understand me. I am speaking on my cell phone and very clearly. They never can understand me. If Humana wants to speak to me or my husband, please have someone call directly. No automated. If that is not possible, then send an e-mail.
I was referred to an Orthooedic specialist by my primary care physician. When I went to check out after the appointment, I was told the doctor I saw, appointment scheduled by my primary care doctor, was not in the “network” and I was charged a big fee. I was also advised that I needed surgery, that Human would only cover a percentage, and only after a big deductible. This was a bad surprise! Where can I go, with my coverage to get the surgery I need? I feel betrayed, as this was a referral by my doctor who is in the system.
