We were told that MSW will need to be licensed but not told which license, or when this will be mandatory for FCM role. There are MSW FCM in the role of FCM currently. Anyone know which license they will require?
We DO need SS
What? They are saying changes were made because nobody is referring to SS? I'm a PHC and I rely heavily on the expertise of SS. Leadership, why not just be honest and say it's a money thing, that they are a business and trying to squeeze everything... — read more

PHC's
One by one, my teammates are putting their two weeks in, others are looking. Now, I haven't seen ads for PHC's (without social service licenses) in a long, long time. So eventually, unless they hire to replace us, which they are not doing and have... — read more

A message to Management: Please STOP the abuse!
The only way to get this job done is to not take lunch or breaks or wellness hour. Pressure is on, # of calls increases by the week! I wish our coaches and higher ups had a case load so they knew how time consumming and so very difficult it is to... — read more

I'd love to hear what the caseloads look like for FCM's now. I know before all the changes there was focus on getting at least 25 visits per week, and some FCMs were part of the layoffs for having small caseloads. Now they aren't focused on number of... — read more

What's going on at Humana Behavioral Health, they seem to growing. How is the work environment like at HBH?
I seem some jobs opening at HBH and want to know if is better than HAH? Do they macro manage like HAH ? Is the work environment better?
HAH 2.0 managers want to comment?
Any higher ups managers want to tell us what's really going on? It's anonymous! Please share. I think the old model was not profitable enough. In addition to over hiring. I imagine layoffs would have happened even if the merger went through. Now they... — read more

Lots of talk about behavioral health, pharmacy and in home services.

First it was said we are pivoting away from care coordination then they back tracked and said adding in home.
I think what he said first was accurate "pivoting from" not adding to. Makes sense now that they stopped enrolling in PHC segments. This meeting has been more informative. Sounds like focus will be on in home care, not telephonic care coordination... — read more
