HUMANA* Charge (What It Is + Is It Legit?)

Humana Health uses the shortened billing descriptor "HUMANA*" on bank statements because payment processors and card networks like Visa and Mastercard enforce a strict character limit on merchant descriptors, typically capping them at 22 characters or fewer. The asterisk in "HUMANA*" is a standard formatting convention used by many large insurers to separate the brand name from any additional billing detail that may follow, such as a policy number or plan type, depending on your bank's display format. If you're seeing this charge for around $250.00 on a monthly basis, it almost certainly represents your Humana health insurance premium being automatically debited from your account.

No, this is a legitimate charge from Humana Health. However, if you did not authorize this charge or cancelled your subscription, you may be eligible for a refund.
