News brief

What happened

Moffitt and Humana say Moffitt will be out of network for affected Humana Medicare Advantage PPO plans after their contract ends. Patients should confirm their plan, appointment date, continuity-of-care options and potential out-of-network costs directly with the plan and provider.

News report

What is confirmed

Both organizations have published statements, giving readers primary-source accounts from each side. Independent public-radio coverage adds patient and regional context.

News report

Why it matters

Cancer care often spans months, so a network change can affect active treatment, referrals and bills differently from an ordinary provider switch. PPO status also does not automatically mean zero coverage; plan terms matter.

News report

What to watch next

Update any agreement extension and state-specific continuity protections. Do not tell patients to switch or cancel a plan without personalized plan review.
