Which Humana plans reach the most Kansas counties in 2027?
Among Humana's 2027 Kansas lineup, the plans with the widest county reach are two PPO plans marketed as Humana USAA Honor Giveback, listed in 54 counties and 52 counties respectively (both without drug coverage). Following those, Humana Essentials Plus Giveback (PPO) and HumanaChoice Giveback H5216-409 (PPO) each appear in 29 counties, with additional Humana Essentials Plus Giveback (PPO) entries in 23 and 22 counties.
Humana Value Choice (PPO) is listed in 26, 21 and 21 counties across three separate entries, and HumanaChoice H5216-032 (PPO) is listed in 21 counties. The HMO-POS and PFFS plans — including Humana Total Complete, Humana Total Complete Giveback, Humana Gold Plus H0028-017 (HMO), the two Humana Gold Plus — Diabetes and Heart C-SNPs, and the two Humana Gold Choice PFFS plans — are offered in smaller county footprints ranging from 2 to 19 counties. The full county counts for each plan appear in the table on this page.
What is new or not returning from Humana in Kansas for 2027?
For the 2027 plan year in Kansas, Humana lists 0 brand-new plans and 0 plans that are not returning, according to the CMS year-over-year comparison. Several plans do appear under new names: for example, three Humana Essentials Plus Giveback (PPO) entries, three Humana Value Choice (PPO) entries, two Humana Total Complete (HMO-POS) entries and two Humana Total Complete Giveback (HMO-POS) entries are flagged in the CMS files as renamed from 2026 contract IDs such as HumanaChoice Giveback H7617-015 (PPO), Humana Gold Plus H0028-054 (HMO-POS) and Humana Value Choice H5216-318 (PPO).
A rename does not necessarily mean the plan itself is unchanged. If your current Humana plan has a new name for 2027, review the Annual Notice of Change (ANOC) your plan mails each fall for specifics on what, if anything, is different.
How do I check whether a Humana plan is offered in my Kansas county and covers my doctors and prescriptions?
To check whether a specific Humana plan is offered in your Kansas county for 2027, use the Medicare Plan Finder at medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE (TTY 1-877-486-2048), available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The plans listed in this article are counted once statewide, so a plan on the list may or may not be offered in the county where you live.
To confirm whether your doctors, hospitals and pharmacies are in-network, and whether your prescriptions are on the formulary, check the plan's own provider directory, pharmacy directory and drug list, or the plan's Evidence of Coverage. Those documents are the authoritative source for network and benefit details — this article does not describe premiums, copays, benefits, networks or star ratings for any plan.
What should Kansas Medicare beneficiaries do before December 7, 2026?
Annual Enrollment for Medicare Open Enrollment 2027 runs October 15 through December 7, 2026, and any choice you make during that window takes effect January 1, 2027. If you are satisfied with your current coverage and it is returning for 2027, you generally do not need to do anything to stay enrolled.
A short checklist for the weeks before December 7:
- Read the Annual Notice of Change (ANOC) from your current plan, which arrives in the fall.
- Make a list of your doctors, hospitals, pharmacies and prescriptions.
- On medicare.gov, enter your ZIP code and county, then compare the plans actually offered where you live.
- If you want to talk through options, call 1-800-MEDICARE.
Where can Kansas residents get free help comparing Medicare plans for 2027?
