Thread regarding Optum layoffs

Optum lay offs

Does anyone know how long severance pay is? As a UM nurse we have hardly had any cases come through for all markets for over a month now. They said some members may be moved to the California team but they have not asked anyone to apply for CA license.

They offshored so much there are teams of prior auth nurses with very few cases to review. They only thing preventing them from offshoring them all is the employers have no offshoring written in their contracts/policies. Between offshoring AI and loss of policies. PA nurses are on shaky ground. They have destroyed this process in the 15 yrs I’ve been around.

@OP are you exempt/union as you’re an RN? If so, I’m not sure. Non exempt I believe it’s 1wk for each year of service.
