My schedule is only full over the next 2 weeks. After that, it starts to be 1/2 full at most. How is everyone else’s? I’m guessing I’m on of the ones being laid off? Texas FNP.

@3dc I half expect it this week, if not, in 2 weeks for sure. What a game they are playing with us!
Looks like some from other areas are getting notifications for meeting tomorrow. Wondering if housecalls will receive anything
@39x have you heard any updates?
@34y You have a lot more retirees on the west coast than here in NH I’m sure. We had VVV at the end of 2025 but none now. I did ask for more licenses on the East coast to consider travel to other states but again that was at the end of last year. As they are still waiting on contracts and numbers no need for travel or VVV yet.
Thinking that too because beginning of the year is always busy and then it thins out
@34y they are just using you guys until the majority of patients have been seen and then they will cut you. I find it interesting that you can do virtual visits but NP’s in Texas had to use PTO when they couldn’t see patients face to face due to inclement weather.
@34y what state are you in?
@342 Considering the burn down of your schedule in NH, have you been offered to do virtual video visits in your state (or any other state you are licensed in? Im a Housecall APC in the West Coast and UHC exited completely from the county I cover. Like you, I'm only left with seeing retirement plan members from commercial plans like AT&T, IBM, etc... I was expecting a layoff as soon as January 2026 because I didnt think there would enough members left to see. Instead I received notification I was to do hybrid visits for my state starting February. My schedule for Feb is about 60% full and a couple of visits scheduled in March. No virtual visits scheduled yet. Unclear if there would even be enough members to see virtually for the rest of the year. I too expect layoff news in the near future.
@342 Sorry to hear that. There were rumors circulating about NH and ME. Also hearing that UHC is losing some big contracts.
HouseCalls APC working in NH. All NH counties were canceled except 3 counties with the 2 biggest cities. The 2 counties I cover were canceled. We are only seeing retirement plan members from companies like School Care, IBM etc. These plans originate outside NH and are national contracts.
I saw 11 members for the month of January. I have 3 members scheduled for tomorrow, February 3rd and no other members scheduled for the rest of the month. No new members added to my schedule in over a week.
Do not expect to keep my position and just waiting every other Friday for the call. Maybe this week or on the 20th as some have suggested. Will keep you posted.
@150 oh yes I remember her. I’ve seen on LinkedIn where she’s working for a company that specializes in women’s health.
@107 probably Christy Duffy? Our previous head of housecalls and an excellent leader.
@t3 who is CD
@t3 The moment that move came all of your antennas should have gone up. The company allready knew they were being investigated for fraud because there was a whistleblower lawsuit which said the risk adjustment scores were lies and who do you think was doing that activity. The nurse practitioner at Housecalls. They can paint the program anyway they want but the main goal was to beef up the risk adjustment scores . It’s just kind of weird that people that work for this company prefer to bury their heads in the sand about fraud. They think if they just ignore it or act like it’s not occurring, it won’t affect them. No one asks questions and everyone takes what your manager / director says no matter how corrupt the activity is.
Good luck to us all. One more week til we get more answers.
@hn Are you talking about C.D.??? She was rif’d. She didn’t jump ship.
@r1 a lot
@pc I thought it was close to 4000 in the EST time zone meeting
does anyone think they will really fire thousands of HC APCS, or do you think more than who will actually be fired were on the update meetings? It doesn't seem like every team got it. it just makes me wondered if we are all spoken for already, and that was just our two week warning before we get laid off next week. but a few thousand seems like a lot..
@qm the days in Feb that I have visits scheduled for are not even at capacity
@qk in my experience, the beginning of the year fills fast. All of Jan and good portion of feb would have been scheduled by now. First 1-3 months everyone wants to get their visits done, then it slows down come summer. Unless I’m remembering things wrong, but it does feel oddly empty.
@qe my schedule for February is basically empty. That’s in PA. Would it be full by this time?
Does anyone actually have full or mostly full schedules?
@pm have not heard of any hybrid here and also only have less than 10 people scheduled for Feb
in West coast - assigned county was impacted by the UHC MA exit and only left with small number of members in the area- so schedule for February is about half full for in-person visits. Informed in late 2025, a continuation of hybrid starting soon (a combination of in person and virtual visits in licensed state). Learned that only certain APCs in specific states were offered hybrid due to business needs in state.
@pd the west coast meeting only like 200 people
@pa no but in central timezone I think there were 3k ppl
@pa like 1100
Does anyone recall how many people were on the business updates meeting on the east coast?
@p5 doubt it as the OAH jobs for NP’s seem to be part time.
@p4 thinking the same thing. No HC jobs posted, but if you looked any given time before there was always HC jobs listed. Wondering if they will try to move HC APC that are overstaffed to the OAH, and you get that or nothing.
I’ve heard there will be layoffs in areas that don’t support the number of APCs to current membership. That’s to be expected they’ve done it before, mostly with per assessment and part time. If you look at the job postings tho, there’s basically none for HC when there’s usually 100’s. Most of the NP jobs are for OAH and I have a feeling they will start to transition HC into OAH, nothing to support that thought but just a feeling with the way things are going.
@nw makes me wonder if they plan to use the previous Landmark SW’s for referrals.
@nb 100% true. Nobody is risking their license for a corporation and with no incentive to do so. With all of the audits and reviews done, this would have been flagged. Too many layers of internal and external review. I think this comes down to an unfounded rumor at this point.
@nw no, that’s true. They have internal care managers and social workers.
Has anyone heard or seen any other updates? I know it’s only been a week since the business update meeting, but the waiting is ki-ling me.
@nw maybe with the decrease in HC providers they are anticipating needing less SW as well?
Our team got an email yesterday that we would no longer be received SW referrals from House Calls. Something about HC having their own internal team for those referrals now but wondering if there is something else going on now.
@nb Agree. The message here is simple. Don’t do it and you won’t have any problems.
@jp HC provider here for 10+ years. Never did I ever give into coding or diagnoses that couldn't be supported in the home. Never did they ever punish me in any way, reduce my pay or withhold an incentive award. IF you are/were a provider who did that---it's on you.
