How Qualifying Members Can Access Humana's Healthy Foods Card at H Mart and Other Retailers

Humana has expanded its Healthy Foods Card program by partnering with H Mart, the nation’s largest Asian supermarket chain, enabling eligible Medicare Advantage members to purchase groceries at select retailers across the country. This collaboration aims to address food insecurity among dual-eligible individuals—those who qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid coverage.

Who Can Get a Humana Healthy Food Card?

Qualifying members of Humana’s Dual Eligible Special Needs Plans (D-SNPs) may be eligible for a monthly food card allowance. If your Humana Medicare Advantage D-SNP plan includes this benefit, you can use it at participating retailers nationwide. To determine if you’re eligible and how to activate your Humana healthy food card, contact your plan directly or review your plan documents for specific benefit details.

Where to Use Your Card and What You Can Buy

The Humana Healthy Foods Card works like a standard savings card—simply have the barcode scanned at checkout. Once activated, members can purchase qualifying food and beverage items at over 70 H Mart locations across the U.S., plus numerous other national chains. Eligible purchases include essentials like milk, eggs, bread, juices, fresh fruits and vegetables, yogurts, waters, and other nutritious items, with available balances up to $75 per month depending on location.

H Mart’s extensive selection of Asian groceries, international products, and Western staples makes it an ideal partner for the program. The supermarket chain operates over 97 stores nationwide and is recognized as one of America’s fastest-growing retailers, offering everything from fresh produce to specialty ingredients that reflect diverse cultural food traditions.

The Partnership’s Impact on Food Access

Julie Mascari, Regional President of Medicare for Humana’s Northeast Region, emphasized that connecting members with culturally preferred foods and healthy options is central to the program’s mission. By adding H Mart to the network, Humana brings a broader variety of nutritious ingredients to members’ diets while supporting their food preferences and traditions.

Both companies share a commitment to community health. H Mart’s president, Brian Kwon, noted that the partnership aligns with the company’s values of supporting seniors and building relationships with organizations dedicated to community well-being. Humana’s approach of combining healthcare with practical food assistance demonstrates how integrated solutions can improve both health outcomes and quality of life.

Getting Started

Members with an active D-SNP plan can begin using the Humana healthy food card at participating H Mart locations as of the program’s rollout date. Affiliate and franchise locations are expected to join in a second phase following the initial launch.
