Hi all. Retired Navy currently using Medicare A&B with TFL as a secondary.
I had been looking forward to Silver Sneakers but that is not available without Part C. Has anyone explored a program as described below? It seems too good to be true and I'm reluctant to trust a salesperson on such a complex product. Thanks in advance.

The Humana Honor plan is available in 46 states, is a PPO (not HMO) allowing you to use any doctor who accepts Medicare nationwide and do not require a referral to see a specialist. There is a big difference between a Part C HMO from a small insurance company, which limits your options substantially and a PPO from Humana or UHC. These plans vary slightly from state to state but include these benefits.
– zero premium (Must continue to pay Part B premium)
– vision, hearing and dental coverage ($2000 a year dental max per year typically)
– Medicare Part B premium credit- $75-$125 a month, varies from state to state
– SilverSneakers Gym membership
The standard Medicare Part B premium for 2023 is $164.90 a month. So as an example, if you enroll in a Part C plan with a $100 month Part B credit, your Medicare Part B premium with be $64.90 each month.
This causes your social security check to increase $100 a month or $300 less you pay quarterly if you are not receiving social security benefits. The Part B credit is per person, per month and happens automatically.
Most of you are reading this because you just want to get SilverSneakers. The Humana Honor plan accomplishes that AND saves you $1200+ a year per person on your Medicare Part B premium, includes hearing, vision and dental coverage.
