Humana is just chasing dollars for stock holders. They don't care about associates as we can see on this board but also they don't care about members. Watch this video about Medicare Advantage.
Medicare Advantage NO MORE? | Congress Finally Taking Action

Hey…posters…I see both sides to your arguments. This seems to be escalating and doesn’t need to. There is truth in both sides.
You will find articles all around to support the issue of billing fraud. The point is the poster is complaining about Humana not caring about their associates or members. The SNP benefits on the plan are pretty amazing, with food cards and grants and unlimited transportation. Those benefits help a lot. There has been fraud in billing practices and kick backs for years. None of this is anything new. But, Humana, along with other insurance companies have hmo and ppos. If you’re on an hmo, the process is different for authorizations than for ppos. The sheer volume that the providers see due to an increasing aged population, and the burdens on the support staff to try to process everything, the insurance system is not set up to handle the amount of people involved. Many people can’t afford supplemental policies to go along with Medicare. Go to ssa.gov and see what your expected amount is for social security when you retire, and see if you’re going to be able to afford them in the future. The system you’re bashing gives you a check and allows for many of our served populations to get food and meds and transportation they weren’t getting before.

Omg. Your video link is a sales video for someone! They’re talking about the difference between an hmo and a ppo. Do they say that? A primary care refers out to a specialist? Horrific! Maybe the primary care isn’t able to diagnose what the specialist can. Is the hmo and overall insurance process cumbersome? Yes. Do Medicare advantage plans help many? Are SNP plans laden with benefits other plans don’t have? Yes.
Please, do some due diligence before you post a sales video from someone. You’re very hypocritical by saying Humana doesn’t care about their employees when the income Humana generates from their plans also pays your salary and benefits. Which way do you want to spin that?
Your link is a joke. He’s an insurance salesman who is spinning something to generate people using his business. So, tell me…if you fell Humana doesn’t care, does that you tuber care, or is he just trying to generate business and money….same as Humana. Welcome to the world of today, snowflake
They’re a business. Their goal, as a business, is to succeed. They are an insurance company in a competitive field with Medicare and Medicaid populations. Their associates are malleable based on what their business model is. Do they care about associates? Yes. Do they do regular layoffs? Yes. Would it make more sense for them to say they’re thinking about another pivot, do any of the current associates have experience or interest? To then transfer those associates rather than RIF them all? I wish they would do that on a bigger scale.
