Humana’s In-home Health and Well-being Assessment (IHWA) brings a trusted, licensed medical professional to the comfort and privacy of your own home for a complete review of your overall health—at no extra cost to you.
The IHWA program is part of what Humana calls human care. This means it’s part of connecting with our members on a deeper, whole-person level to get answers to your health questions and make sure you get what you need for your best health.
Well-being assessments like the IHWA may help give extra support for your health goals. It offers you another layer of care on top of your annual physical or wellness visit with your doctor, with some unique advantages.
Support for your overall health in the comfort of your own home
Our licensed medical professionals come directly to you
Chat one-on-one for up to an hour about ways to maintain or achieve your health goals
The IHWA program uses trusted medical professionals who can deliver personalized answers to your most important health questions.
The IHWA supports both you and your doctor. Since it is a relaxed conversation, the medical professional has the chance to discuss and explain details that may be left out of a routine doctor’s visit.
Take the time to talk about how to achieve your health goals and how to maintain them. A caregiver is welcome to join you for the assessment so they can have a clear picture of how it works and how it can help you.
The medical professional comes to you, so there is no travel time and no sitting in a waiting room.
All medical professionals follow current CDC guidelines for screenings, vaccinations and protective equipment. This can help limit your exposure to health risks such as COVID-19 or the seasonal flu.
You will not be charged for any part of the IHWA visit or screenings done during the IHWA. If your Humana Medicare Advantage plan includes the IHWA service, you may receive one IHWA per year. The IHWA service is not meant to replace an annual wellness visit with your doctor and it does not affect your plan rates or benefits.*
