Reversing Humana recoupments. Reinstating terminated pharmacies.
Request a Free Case ReviewHumana Pharmacy Solutions runs one of the largest Medicare Part D audit programs in the country. Part D mechanics make every claim sensitive to DIR fees reconciliation, and pharmacies serving 340B covered entities face additional cross-referencing against the manufacturer ceiling price.
A single flagged claim can trigger six- and seven-figure recoupments, termination for cause, and downstream loss of Humana commercial, Humana Medicare Advantage Part D, and TRICARE network access. We defend pharmacies nationwide before the audit closes. Every day of delay changes your settlement posture.

Anthony's background as a former federal prosecutor and executive for major healthcare companies provided a level of expertise and insight that made all the difference. His deep understanding of healthcare law, particularly in litigation and compliance matters, helped navigate complex legal issues with ease.
With upmost professional respect, I will be forever grateful to have such caring individuals as Attorney Anthony Mahajan and Attorney Diana Yastrovskaya who come into my life, even though I am a business owner but I always felt I was treated as a friend and was made reaching out to them with ease.

By the time the Humana Pharmacy Solutions notice arrives, the downstream exposure is already stacked. Here is what your pharmacy is actually defending against.
Humana Pharmacy Solutions audit findings routinely demand recoupments of $250K to $4M+ per matter, with the audit team aggressively extrapolating a sampled-claim error rate across 12 to 24 months of total dispensing. Defense requires challenging both the sampled findings and the extrapolation methodology.
A Humana Pharmacy Solutions termination for cause designation flows downstream across the entire Humana enterprise: Humana commercial, Humana Medicare Advantage Part D, and the TRICARE network operated by the parent. Credentialing impact across multiple payors typically lands within 30 days of the termination notice.
Humana Pharmacy Solutions audit findings on controlled substances, compounding, and high-cost specialty claims are routinely referred to DEA, DOJ, HHS-OIG, and state boards of pharmacy. A PBM finding can become a civil investigative demand, a state board complaint, or a federal healthcare fraud investigation within weeks.
Four factors make Humana Pharmacy Solutions recoupments uniquely dangerous, and uniquely defensible if you know where Humana Pharmacy Solutions is actually vulnerable.
A PBM audit runs on the deadlines in your network agreement. What you produce, and when, becomes the record the PBM uses to set findings, chargebacks, and any network action.
Our bench includes a former Assistant U.S. Attorney (DOJ Director's Award nominee) and senior PBM operational counsel. We have run more than 2,000 audits across the major PBMs, including Humana Pharmacy Solutions. This is how we dismantle a Humana audit.
Within 24 hours: parse every deadline in the Humana audit notice, place a litigation hold on the claims at issue, and preserve adjudication logs and signature records before Humana's evidentiary window narrows.
Claim-by-claim reconstruction: prescriber PA rationale, plan criteria at time of fill, DAW code support, signature log validation, and controlled substance recordkeeping. Every flagged claim gets its own defense memo tied to the Humana audit citation.
We draft and file the written Humana appeal, quantify the extrapolation errors, and negotiate directly with the Humana audit team and provider relations on behalf of the pharmacy.
If Humana Pharmacy Solutions refuses a reasonable resolution, we file in federal court and pair the suit with regulatory defense at DEA, HHS-OIG, and the state board so a PBM dispute does not escalate into a license action or a criminal referral.
Health Law Alliance handles the response and any parallel appeal, licensing matter or referral as one coordinated matter, so the strategy does not change hands as the matter moves between forums.
The bench includes a former Assistant U.S. Attorney nominated for the DOJ Director's Award, senior healthcare-company counsel, and attorney-providers with experience across healthcare audits and investigations.
Agency and company marks identify former professional experience of individual HLA team members. They do not imply affiliation, endorsement, or a client relationship.
If any of these describe your 2024 to 2026 Humana Pharmacy Solutions-billed dispensing activity, you are already in the Humana audit pool whether or not the notice has arrived.
Outcomes are summarized for confidentiality. Client names, precise geography, and identifying facts are redacted.
Network Reinstated
A compounding pharmacy received a Humana termination for cause tied to compounded GLP-1 dispensing during the FDA shortage period. HLA's appeal brief documented compliance with the 503A pathway in effect on the dispense dates, addressed the OON appeal procedural record, and obtained full reinstatement across Humana, Humana Medicare Advantage, and TRICARE without a recoupment.
Recoupment Reversed
A multi-location independent pharmacy faced a Humana specialty audit citing DAW code mismatches and signature log gaps across 18 months of dispenses. HLA reconstructed the underlying claims, challenged the extrapolation methodology, and negotiated a final settlement substantially below the original recoupment demand.
State Board Closed
A Humana on-site audit produced a state board of pharmacy referral alleging recordkeeping and dispensing violations. HLA's regulatory response addressed each cited deficiency and documented compliance with the state pharmacy practice act on the dispense dates; the board closed the matter with no discipline.
