What happened
Humana increased its Medicare Advantage plan ratings, placing 95% of its members into plans rated 4 stars or above for 2027, up from 20% in 2026. The company also reported that its normalized Stars revenue per member exceeded its top-quartile goal. These ratings affect Medicare Advantage quality bonus payments for 2028.

Why it matters
The improved ratings restore an important revenue opportunity for Humana after a sharp coverage decline the prior year. Better bonus economics could support stronger plan competitiveness, richer member benefits, or higher earnings. Humana affirmed at least $9.00 of adjusted earnings per share for 2026.
