Personal Care Account (PCA)

Humana's PCA, also called a Health Reimbursement Arrangement, helps employees offset a portion of healthcare expenses. PCAs allow employers to contribute to employee healthcare expenses and give employees control over how the funds are used.

Humana refers to these accounts as a “PCA” because employees view it as a “personal” account to help them manage healthcare spending.

PCA advantages

Available with PPO medical plans

Humana pairs the PCA with a high-deductible plan, though not necessarily one that meets the IRS definition of a "High Deductible Health Plan" (e.g. integrated medical and pharmacy deductible). We offer several PPO plan designs, ranging from 100/70 coinsurance to 80/60.

Funds may carry over

Employers have the option to allow carry-over of unused funds at the end of the plan year, as long as the employee chooses a PCA plan again. The employer can determine carry-over limits.

Easy to use

Depending on the plan design, members may spend PCA funds easily with the HumanaAccessSM Visa® Debit Card. When employers offer both a PCA and FSA, employees get a single, integrated card. The card promotes increased participation in spending accounts.

HumanaAccess Card

The card gives members an easy, convenient way to access spending account funds at health-related provider locations such as doctor's offices and pharmacies. View details about how the HumanaAccess Card works.
