Humana Inc.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
December 31, 2007 and 100% at December 31, 2006. The decrease primarily was related to the November 30,
2007 KMG acquisition. Premiums ceded were $13.4 million in 2007, $15.7 million in 2006 and $21.7 million in
2005.
We evaluate the financial condition of these reinsurers on a regular basis. These reinsurers are well-known
and well-established, as evidenced by the strong financial ratings at December 31, 2007 presented below:
Reinsurer

Recoverable A.M. Best Rating
(in thousands)
Protective Life Insurance Company .............. $214,821 A+ (superior)
All others ................................... 126,817 A+ to A- (excellent)
$341,638
The all other category represents approximately 20 reinsurers with individual balances less than $25.0
million. Two of these reinsurers have placed $31.0 million in trusts equivalent to the amount recoverable from
the reinsurer.
