Thread regarding Centene Corp. layoffs

Centene to pay $13.7M to settle PBM allegations in New Mexico

Another reason layoffs are coming, aside from anti-vaxxers finally getting the well-deserved boot:

The insurer set aside $1.1 billion to address a series of similar allegations in multiple states, with the settlement in New Mexico the sixth such arrangement in the string of cases.

The settlements include $56 million in two installments to Illinois and $15.2 million to Arkansas. Centene will also pay more than $27 million to settle PBM allegations in Kansas.

In addition to the settlement with Centene, Balderas' office said it will investigate other PBMs operating in the state's Medicaid program following the Federal Trade Commission's decision last week to investigate the industry's largest companies.

It's pretty pathetic that even after all the ridiculousness and proof that the shots were pointless, there are still people on this "anti-vaxxer" b.s.
Pat yourself on the back for being a majority of the problem in this country.

Leadership said the vaccine is no longer required to enter our office space today. Doesn’t seem like that means they are firing people who won’t get vaccinated to me.

The Vax was mandatory to work for Centene. Non vaxxed were let go lat October. It was mandated because of contracts with federal gov. Any company with contracts w/ government = all of the employees had to get vaxxed.

No, OP just thought it would be funny to mention people’s vax status together with this sad news.
But, regardless how rude and irrespective OP is towards his fellow coworkers, this thread is not about the vax, it’s about another round of layoffs coming (regardless of our vax status).
So, move your discussions about the effectiveness of the vaccines to somewhere else, as this is the layoff forum board, not “Ask Dr. Oz” show.

Is this true , they are letting people go based on their body their choice? I received all the vaccines and booster and still got very sick !!! I’m sorry if you’re being let go because of this, truly.
