Humana (NYSE:HUM) Unveils Telehealth Pilot for Congestive Heart Failure Patients
Intel-GE Care Innovations (NASDAQ:INTC) (NYSE:GE) has partnered with Humana (NYSE:HUM) to create a pilot project which empowers Humana nurses to manage the care of congestive heart failure patients anywhere in the country.
Intel-GE Care Innovations is a joint venture between General Electric and Intel, formed in August 2010.
How it works is a computer is used in the home of a patient for the purpose of monitoring vital signs on a daily basis. Using Intel Health Guide, information is transmitted over the Web.
The computer is equipped with two-way video so nurses and patients can interact face-to-face. Nurses can observe physical traits that may indicate changes in a member’s condition and can alert physicians to any changes so doctors can adjust medication or treatment.
Doug Busch, chief operating offer for Intel-GE Care Innovations, noted that allowing people to age in their homes while interacting with their care providers is critical to controlling the cost of health care.
Humana closed Monday at $65.24, gaining $0.33, or 0.51 percent.

Humana (NYSE:HUM) Margins, Earnings Shrinking
With premium rates remaining level and Humana (NYSE:HUM) maintaining its benefit levels, Jefferies sees them having lower margins and earnings and maintain a "Hold" rating on them.
Jefferies said, "HUM is maintaining MA benefit levels against static MA premium rates. As margin and EPS shrinks more than expected, the pullback doesn't yet create a compelling enough entry valuation."
Earnings per share estimates were dropped to $5.54, with revenue lowered to $35.3 billion.
They added guidance could be exceeded on these three things:
"1) higher membership growth, 2) a larger impact from its recently installed clinical management programs, 3) continued moderate cost trends (in MA or Commercial), or 4) risk adjustments."
Humana closed Friday at $56,03, dropping $0.78, or 1.37 percent. Jefferies has a price target of $65 on them, increasing it from $61. Volume was up significantly from the 3-month daily average.
