How Humana May Cover Anxiety Treatment in Mississippi

Humana currently operates as a Medicare Advantage insurer in Mississippi following its exit from the commercial health insurance market in 2024. Humana Medicare Advantage plan types in Mississippi may include Gold Plus HMO, HumanaChoice PPO, R/H PPO, and Honor HMO-POS options. Mental health parity requirements for Humana Medicare Advantage plans in Mississippi are governed by CMS under 42 CFR Part 422 — not by state commercial insurance parity statutes such as Miss.

Medicare Advantage mental health benefits: Humana Medicare Advantage plans in Mississippi may cover anxiety evaluation and medication management as part of their mental health benefits. Coverage details, including prior authorization requirements and cost-sharing, vary by specific plan. Review your Evidence of Coverage (EOC) document for your plan’s anxiety treatment benefit details.

Medications through Humana Pharmacy Solutions: Humana Medicare Advantage plans include Part D pharmacy benefits through Humana Pharmacy Solutions (HPS). Anxiety medications that may be covered through HPS include: SSRIs such as sertraline (Tier 1–2), escitalopram (Tier 1–2), and fluoxetine (Tier 1); SNRIs such as venlafaxine (Tier 1–2) and duloxetine (Tier 2); non-scheduled anxiolytics such as buspirone (Tier 1); and benzodiazepines (Schedule IV, subject to quantity limits under Medicare Part D guidelines). EPCS requirements apply only to Schedule II controlled substances — benzodiazepines (Schedule IV) and standard anxiety medications are not subject to EPCS requirements.

Prior authorization: Some anxiety medications may require prior authorization through HPS. Your Klarity provider can assist with prior authorization documentation where applicable.

Medicaid note: Humana also administers Medicaid managed care plans in some states. If you are enrolled in a Humana Medicaid plan in Mississippi, benefit terms differ from Medicare Advantage — contact Humana Medicaid member services for your specific plan’s anxiety treatment coverage.
