Thread regarding Centene Corp. layoffs

Mission Simplify

Meanwhile in the Compliance department we are reviewing contracts under "mission simplify" to see what is needed at health plan level, corporate, or can be outsourced.

@dp Let me guess, RT is right there in the middle of it. Am I correct?

@en Your position has been eliminated. The phrase from their script is ”your role has been/was impacted,” but yeah. The rest.

Also… for anyone wondering how this movie can end: Blue Cross Minnesota outsourced Medicaid operations, racked up 8 corrective action plans and $13.15M in sanctions, then brought the work back in-house and hired 300+ people. Sometimes “simplify” gets complicated. Source: https://www.startribune.com/after-outsourcing-trouble-blue-cross-of-minnesota-hiring-300-plus-to-manage-public-insurance-enrollees/600244849/

Another one…

Ask Ford how that went. They leaned harder on automation, discovered they’d undervalued institutional knowledge, and brought in 350 veteran engineers to fix it.

Source: https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/28/ford-rehires-gray-beard-engineers-after-ai-falls-short/ The moral of these stories is this, “The expensive part isn’t cutting institutional knowledge. It’s discovering later what that knowledge was worth.”

There. My entire “screed” fits on one-ish screen. 😂

"Mission Simplify"😄 I am going to tell you from personal experience that this is a plan to reduce headcount. This is the same program (under different names) corporations used to offshore jobs to India in the 90s. This time you will be helping to eliminate your fellow employees for A.I.

Just be aware that If you are involved, you are a corporate tool. The only award or recognition you will receive for your participation will be an email that says “Your job has also been eliminated”

@an layoffs are not over. The larger scale of involuntary layoffs have completed but now they will complete reorganization of multiple departments and we will have additional layoffs in November and December.

@at Unfortunately, they aren't. Sarah London reported that involuntary layoffs would make up 20% of those impacted. Individuals who took the VSP have layoffs until 2027. I would think that involuntary layoffs would continue to correspond with those dates.

It’s likely DSNP Caid agency contracts that sometimes require insurers to have certain services in state, staffed by local teams.

Run! If you get the chance, get out. They are running that ship to ground. Best decision I ever made

@OP sounds pretty simple, just remember to “do what’s right, not what’s easy.” 😀
