@kt The only way I can see FN being CEO is if our current CEO is ready to sail off in her yacht and the board will put FN in temporarily while they perform an external search for a new CEO. Thank goodness I will be out of here soon.

Recent leadership changes seem to point to FN being positioned as GB’s successor (if the Board goes with an internal candidate).

Any thoughts?

Currently work for Carelon MBM and we have slowed down a ton over the last month and a half. Anyone have any insight into layoffs?

CPO leaving and collapsing the org under audit. The last move didn’t make sense, but this one makes less. Playing darts with their eyes closed.

@br my guess is because of current litigation regarding Medicare Advantage plans. It is just sweeping an issue under the carpet. They are very different in terms of coverage and combining them seems like a disservice to members.

@ew The communications don't go out to everyone. I got none of them, and there were at least four (that I only received because people forwarded to me).

SA no longer reporting to GB and now reporting to FN. Giant ego blow. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.

We received an email today about most of the comments on here. It didn't include the RIF info of course , but wondering if associates just don't read the organizational communications because the comments on here have some information wrong from what was clearly communicated.

It is correct that KS is gone and all government business all combined under AD. Looks like someone filling PH role. Otherwise I am not sure if these names will help anyone or not but are some articles with leadership changes:

GRS is group retiree. It’s a subset of Medicare membership for those who get benefits through a former employer. I heard leadership changes happened today. More non-leadership changes will happen tomorrow. Brace yourselves. Good luck everyone.

@b8 said “ Medicaid and Medicare being combined…” Not my area, so I’ve heard nothing about it. I can’t understand why/how. They’re totally different beasts; administered differently, funded differently, with totally different operational rules. It’s like merging sewer workers and airline pilots. Glad I’m retiring this fall; this company is heading full speed off a cliff.
