Humana Approaches $1B Acquisition of Florida Primary Care Company: Bloomberg

Humana is negotiating a roughly $1 billion purchase of Florida‑based MaxHealth, a primary‑care network focused on adults and seniors. MaxHealth is owned by Arsenal Capital Partners’ Best Value Healthcare, and the deal would deepen Humana’s primary‑care footprint after recent growth in its Medicare Advantage business. The insurer recently added 1 million Medicare Advantage members and acquired The Villages Health, expanding its senior‑care portfolio. The transaction arrives amid bipartisan legislative efforts to curb insurer‑provider vertical integration.
