Company extending its pop-up location at the Pearlridge Center Mauka and adding information kiosks at two local malls
In time for the 2020 Medicare Advantage and Prescription Drug Plan Annual Election Period, or AEP, which runs Oct. 15-Dec. 7, 2019, health and well-being company Humana Inc. is increasing its presence in Honolulu.
Due to demand, Humana is extending its pop-up location at the Pearlridge Center Mauka through December 2019.
The pop-up location aims to educate Honolulu area residents on health and wellness by offering free classes that are open to anyone in the community, such as healthy snack and smoothie demonstrations, crafting classes, diabetes and nutrition education, and SilverSneakers® Fitness Program demonstrations.
Originally scheduled to run through September, the free health and wellness events were extremely popular with Hawaii residents. Since March when the pop up began, Hawaii residents have had the chance to participate in more than 3,700 health and wellness activities.
The pop-up location will operate Oct. 8-10, Nov. 5-7 and Dec. 3-5, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Pearlridge Center Mauka – Center Court, 98-1005 Moanalua Road, Aiea, HI 96701. Call (808) 540-2570 for more information or to RSVP for specific classes.
In addition, Humana will have a presence at kiosks at two local malls during the AEP –Pearlridge Center Mauka and Winward Mall.
The kiosks will be staffed by Humana licensed insurance agents who will be available to answer questions such as:
- What are the differences between original Medicare and Medicare Advantage?
- What plan options would work best for me based on my health, lifestyle and income?
- What health and well-being benefits does each plan offer?
- What options are there for prescription drug, dental and vision coverage? Or coverage for hearing aids or fitness programs? Do plans offer wellness programs or coverage for over-the-counter (OTC) items?
Agents will be at the kiosks daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Pearlridge Center and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Windward Mall, seven days a week starting Oct. 1 through Nov. 30, 2019. In addition, agents can assist current Humana members with benefits- and claims-related questions.
