Humana Inc. is paying a unit of HC2 Holdings Inc. $203 million to provide a good home for its stand-alone long-term care insurance business.

Continental General Insurance Company, an insurance company subsidiary of HC2, is paying Humana $10,000 to acquire the stock of Humana's KMG America Corp. subsidiary.
