“We’re committed to making the healthcare system more equitable,
affordable and easier to navigate,” said Bruce Broussard, Humana’s
Chief Executive Officer. “Healthcare is more than a service—it's an
important journey that puts health first for every person who has
entrusted us with their care.”
Humana reports and measures its performance in 5 key categories
that support and shape its ESG platform: access to healthcare, data
privacy and protection, environmental impact, product quality and
safety, and talent and diversity. These qualitative and
quantitative factors track, measure and report enterprise
performance in achieving strategic business goals, supporting
sustainable practices and improving health outcomes.
Some of Humana’s 2023 impact highlights include:
- Make it simpler for people to achieve their best
health: Humana offered caring support for ongoing
well-being of our employees, members and patients in 2023,
including:
- Humana provided $16 million in tuition and education support to
its employees, empowering their growth and development. On average,
Humana full-time employees spent 49 hours in development
activities, underscoring the company’s commitment to employee
growth and learning.
- 1.8 million Humana members across Medicare Advantage, Medicaid
and commercial plans received screening for social health needs,
helping to support their basic needs and address their health
holistically. Meanwhile, 94% of Humana Medicare Advantage members
are enrolled in plans rated 4 stars and above by the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) in 2024, indicating Humana’s
focus on quality of care, clinical outcomes and industry leading
customer service for health plan members.
- CenterWell’s senior primary care, home health and pharmacy
services provided more patients with integrated and differentiated
experiences that improve health outcomes. CenterWell Senior Primary
Care added more than 60 new centers across the U.S. and served
approximately 295,000 patients. A record number of CenterWell Home
Health branches received recognition through the Star ratings for
clinical quality and patient satisfaction. 56.5% of branches earned
a 4.5 or above Star Rating, up from approximately 29% in July
2022.
- And CenterWell Pharmacy delivered more than 28 million
over-the-counter items and CenterWell mail-order and specialty
pharmacies served more than 2.6 million customers.
- Working to advance healthy equity and population health in
communities: Humana Healthy Horizons, the company’s
Medicaid brand, contributed $10 million in community investments to
support and fund equity-focused programs and community
organizations. Because good health often starts with stable
housing, Humana’s national housing strategy made an additional $40
million commitment to increase the supply of affordable housing,
bringing the total housing commitment to $90 million.
- Building more sustainable business, governance and
healthcare practices: By focusing on simplifying and
automating information sharing in the healthcare system, an
assessment resulted in an estimated $600 million in total value
created by interoperability solutions for physicians. Reflecting
the diversity of its members, patients, employees and communities
served, Humana spent $357 million with its diverse supplier base,
supporting small business owners from underrepresented and
marginalized communities.
- Investing in the health and sustainability of our
environment: The Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi)
officially accepted and validated Humana’s near-term science-based
emission reduction targets. The company will work to reduce Scope 1
and 2 greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by 54.6% by 2032. Humana also
underscored its commitment to sustainability by donating 54 tons of
furniture and office supplies for reuse opportunities and reducing
and equivalent of nearly 250,000 metric tons of air emissions
through electronic recycling.
Humana will continue to provide transparency in all future
reporting around continued Environmental, Social and Governance
practices, processes, and metrics that connect to the business
strategy. Future annual impact reports and the Humana website will
feature updates.
