Anyone have any idea why queues have been low the past couple months?

How bad will it be? 10% reduction on insurance side? Will the severance package that is subject to change be chopped up?!

It seems to me that more and more hospital networks are no longer accepting Medicare Advantage plans, and even PDP members are getting frustrated with prescription denials, etc. This has me concerned that the industry as a whole won’t last. At... — read more

All seems to be quiet on the lay off front judging from the lack of new posts on this forum. Do we think we will have continued 60 day notices putting last days worked into January, or are we done til 1st quarter?

Does anyone know what this is about?

Just got the HR invite for this morning.

do our leaders only believe in money or are they embarrassed they cannot speak up culture or cult?

RIFs will continue through the end of the year. Many notified this past week with termination date of Dec. 18th. Humana just experienced some of the worst scores in their annual associate survey. Those RIFed are probably the lucky ones!

I thought CCM had a RIF. Emails are being received asking for nurses to transfer there. Sounds like someone is putting bad information on here.

Director/friend says rumor is RIFs next two weeks. Got the message today. No clue which areas. Not saying where she works so don’t bother.

How's it going?

30% budget cuts across the board before 2024

What would you like to see change within Humana?

Has anyone had a masters level degree and applied for multiple positions and not be considered for the role? As if you are overqualified. Have you had to remove your masters credentials to get a role within Humana?

I was just wondering if anyone has heard specifics about the Specialty reorganization & RIF plans for that area? Just curious if most associates will be retained with a possible role change or if most will be RIF’d.

Every time I think it's impossible for them to add something new to my plate, they end up doing it. Do they think we're robots? Honestly?

Any news if anyone has heard of the PITA has been or is being done now?

With a new CEO it makes things tricky. A new direction for the company as a whole. More layoffs, changes to our benefits, new acquisitions, etc. What are your thoughts?

I’m betting the end-year RIFs occur on either 10/31 or Nov 1. That’ll be 60 days notice ending at end on 2023. If you get an email one of those mornings that says CONFIDENTIAL Do Not Foward blah blah blah, that’s it.

This company has practically ruined Oct/Nov for me. Layoffs again this year in late October. I’m hearing Marketing, HR and Medicare Operations will be hit the worst. Anyone hearing anything different?
