#vsp

There are a lot of questions here regarding the VSP but none of those seem to fit ISP necessarily, and I have a couple of questions ...COBRA - I accepted the terms 10 days ago but have not received any subsidy information - my 10/1 payment is still listed as $1188.74 - how long does that take? Calling HR is a minimum 1 hour wait on hold.
Severance payout - for a 9/4 departure date appears to be 2-3 paycycles (30 - 45 days) is that correct? Thanks

Got my package! Paid off my car, credit card, personal loan, and 2 months of my mortgage. Another job secured! For a lot of us, the VSP was a much needed blessing. A win is a win! I wanted to spread some GOOD NEWS for folks who are still trying to secure a job and wait on their package. It’s coming your way! You will WIN!
Side note: avoid a lot of the negativity on here. It’s not worth digging into.

My severance was taxed at 37.5%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is everyone's that high????? If so, do you know why?

Has anyone received anything from Hartford Connecticut in regards to converting or porting Life Insurance options as stated on the VSP?

Time to put my skills to work for good instead of evil.

I just wonder how the executives in the health insurance industry sleep at night? When your day consists of:
“How can we turn a bigger profit from the tax money that’s supposed to go to the poor starving sick people?”

when I received the emails, I filled out both the links for the cellular company own device and the link for the laptop. I have not received anything back yet. I’ve called Centene Help Desk IT four times with four different tickets and now I’m calling today and they are literally hanging up on me. Is anybody else experiencing this? I’m ready to give this company their equipment back ASAP. Why are they making it so hard? does anybody have a solution to this or is anybody else running into the same thing?

I've read so many different things on here about what to do about the amount owed with Optum/Cobra.. I went ahead and signed for the amount that was like $1200/month because I assumed the amount will get fixed. This feels F*cking illegal. It's in our signed severance that they will cover us for 3 months. My portion is usually only around $300 a month. So, even if I DID pay the $1200 (which I cant afford too) it would WAY MORE Than those 3 months combined. That place is sooo fu---d. So unorganized. I'm so glad to be out of that fu--ing mess. BUT...does anyone have actual clarity on what we should? Wait to see if the amount adjusts? It's not like most of us can even afford to sue their a-s over this.

Anyone who took the VSP get approved for unemployment? Or can share their experience with applying for it? No negative comments, thanks :)

Does anyone know the next notification date? RIFs are part of quarterly cadence at Centene. Last one was late because of VSP. When is next one planned?

If you got one and refused it, I don't understand you. Centene is a sinking ship. Why you'd choose to stay on with such a good alternative is beyond me.

Have they mention how many people accepted the VSP? And how many RIFs this year?

After finding out that my whole leadership took VSP and now part of a re-org I feel like my “new” team will be dissolved with my leadership departure. I would have taken the VSP if I would have known. Wondering if others feel that same.

Has anyone who accepted VSP been able to access their last paycheck stub? If so, how did you access the 09/11 paystub. I tried logging into Dayforce and resetting my password but the system no longer recognizes my username.

For those whom took the VSP or impacted by ISP, what happened to your 401k loan?

Did you have to pay the balance remaining immediately or did Fidelity Investments allow you to continue making biweekly payments?

Has anyone received a letter from Optum / Cobra after taking the VSP. I got a letter today stating that my premium due starting 10/1 are a total of $1,188.74 PER MONTH. How does that make sense? I thought they were paying a portion? this is absolutely fu---d

I just kinda had a feeling I’d be let go, if not then.. eventually. Well my job along with others is posted. We had been told that we were in jeporday.. which is still being told to the remaining teams… confused on why they would repost a position that is already struggling.

I'm envious of everybody who got it.

I've never worked somewhere where so many decisions seem to make absolutely no sense. People will point out obvious problems with their reasoning and leadership just keeps going anyway. The latest VSPs and involuntary layoffs combo are the best example. We're being run by id--ts.

For those who applied, has anyone heard of someone getting a meeting invite on Monday for a follow up? Trying to understand if all applicants got meeting invites for Monday.

Has anyone received their VSP check yet or know how long it takes after your separation date for them to issue it? Will it come via direct deposit or in the mail?

My separation date was 8/4 and I already signed the final acceptance on the VSP website.

Anyone else get the email regarding a VSP starting on September 23rd?

Verizon is stupid because instead of offering a VSP package to those that are ready to go and have already mentally checked out and won't leave until they get a "RIF package". They lay people off that care about the company and those that are energized and proud to work at Big Red. So they lay off the loyal employees that want to work their and keep the dead wood that don't produce any output other than gas and they don't want to be there anymore. Management does not want to offer VSP, they want to choose who gets laid off. Stupid.

I wanted to put something in writing rather than let it sit, because I know a lot of you are feeling this too.
Based on some of the comments posted It's been suggested that people should be more upbeat about the VSP/ISP changes, and I don't think that's fair. Nobody made a decision like accepting a separation package lightly. For a lot of us, this isn't just a job ending — it's years, sometimes decades, of investment in this organization that we once felt was serving our members and communities. Being asked to greet this change in your livelihood with a cheerful face doesn't erase what it actually feels like, and downplaying it doesn't reflect well on whoever is asking for the cheerfulness. In this industry we all are aware that change is inevitable. But being reassured by your PL your team is safe and suddenly advised your last day is in two weeks hurts.
Caring about how this is handled doesn't mean someone isn't grateful for their time here or isn't committed to doing good work until the day they leave. Staying professional and finishing strong is not the same as pretending this doesn't hurt — both things can be true at once.
I'd also ask that people keep in mind: many of us aren't just colleagues to each other. We may well end up as members on the other side of the services we've spent our careers building. That connection — and that responsibility — doesn't disappear because a title does. Please always remember elevators work both ways. You may be headed up one day and down the next. Learn that a kind word and a small bit of empathy for all will go a long way. I wish everyone well

Maybe I'm reading into this too much but one moment from this town hall has really stuck out to me. During the part where Sarah was doing a panel with Dan and Brad, she started asking for fun facts. At one point she asked "what's your favorite vacation spot"; I don't even remember what they answered, but asking highly paid executives about their favorite vacation a week after the VSP end date feels incredibly tone deaf.

"Cen-Teamers" were forced to make an incredibly difficult decision of powering forward or rolling the dice on finding other employment, and Sarah's asking about vacation spots. Even if it's just an ice-breaker question, still feels pretty thoughtless.

How do i log in to dayforce? I tried calling HR and recording says they have higher than normal volume and they cant get the call. I tried twice.

I was a VSP employee and want to see what my last paycheck looks like.

Also I contacted COBRA and my premium will be $1143/month just medical. Still have not received word on how much of a subsidy Centene will provide.

Did the ISP employees get subsidized cobra? Whether you are VSP or ISP its still a challenging journey.

With losing more states and maybe more to come, has anyone heard if they will adjust VSP staggered dates?

Has anyone signed their severance agreement yet? It says you have to receive your final paycheck, that would be this Friday. Payroll is most likely processed already. Will this negate the agreement?
Fyi...I was ISP not VSP

Congratulations on your VSP, Health Net.

As Sarah London explained to employees earlier this year, “When our membership shifts, we need to shift our organization accordingly.” Apparently that advice is now available to subsidiaries.

We wish Health Net success in its next chapter and remind it that access to its previous line of business will be terminated effective February 28, 2027. Consider adding this to the “impacted” pages “Mission Simplify: Transforming the businesses we serve, one exit at a time.”

Please return your badge, laptop, and PPO network before your last day.

Your remaining responsibilities will be transitioned to other carriers. Please document any institutional knowledge before departure, although nobody will read it until approximately three weeks after you're gone.

Your position will not be backfilled. Unless, of course, we discover six months from now that somebody still needed to do it.

In the meantime, please update LinkedIn to #OpenToGovernmentWork and remember:
This is not an organizational overhaul. Health Net is simply considering a transition.
Thank you for everything you've done to make Centene a diversified healthcare enterprise simpler.

The NoCenteam family wishes you the very best in your future endeavors.

One more thing, suggest changing the company mission to Mission Simplify: Transforming the health of the communities we serve by transforming the employment status of the people who live in them, one person at a time.

I just submitted my claim and curious if it will get approved - wondering what others experiences have been!

I currently work on the Medicare side, just went through teams/email organization tree to see what impact 9/4 had. All of inside sales were wiped out, and field sales are very few. What changes have you noticed in your department?

I shared I took the vsp around the last working day and the vibes were hella weird. I mean it was kin of awkward our last day. Some people leaving due to vsp..some got Rifd ..supervisor got RIFD wasnt even there the last day.Did any of you get a vibe that your team was envious or ignoring you once you finally revealed you took the vsp or found a new job 🤔?Its unfortunate what the ISP people are going through. It just revealed how noncohesive that team really was.

Has anyone who separated on 9/4 gotten an update as to when the payout will occur? Also will anything deter you from getting the VSP? I just have so many questions and concerns and it was written poorly; leaving a ton of questions

I currently work in retention, and our job is mostly on the phone conducting outreach to members, my VSP apparently is not 9/4/2026, and instead it’a in 2027. I didn’t think my job was that important that they needed me to stay until next year? Who/what determines your VSP date? I am curious because I genuinely suspect my sup and director had a say in this.

Did anyone who took the VSP and separated 9/4, get to log in to Workday and it says Terminated?!? Is this normal? Should I be worried about receiving my VSP?

in the agreement it says "except that Employee may not sign this Release prior to Employee’s Termination Date and prior to receiving Employee’s final paycheck.”

did anyone sign theirs today??? I'm confused lol

For those that have received the Separation Agreement for the VSP with separation date of today, 9/4: It seems like they will not produce an updated severance benefit document ahead of us needing to sign within 45 days. We’ll only have the estimate they produced originally. Does this seem accurate to others?

Does anyone know when benefits will expire after VSP separation date 9/4?

What is the difference for anyone let go immediately on 8/10? They essentially rec'd four weeks additional pay just like VSP and they didn't have to work! Their severance begins 9/4 just like VSP.
