Thread regarding Elevance Health (Anthem) layoffs

Major RIFs have been happening for a year and all of a sudden there is a letter circulating about a RIF? I find it hard to believe if this is true a year later would be the first time anyone posted something.

I've heard there is another RIF coming from a reliable source (someone who has to cut from their team). But this OP message sounds like some AI BS.

I believe the message up front but there is no way they circulated anything like that because they know it would end up on sites like this. More layoffs are coming. carelon has missed member targets for past 5 yrs the only thing they have done is protect margin but now even that is at risk.

I call BS. The language seems off. I think this is somebody trying to get everybody worked up.

So is the monthly quell happening in both Oct and Nov?

No doubt November and December. They want to balance that yearly budget.
Roster Automation..offshore and failing…Credentialing off shore and timeframes increased 500%….
Step up AI welcome to the ring….here we go!

Contact your state and your congressional representatives. Your Medicaid and Medicare funds should not be going off shore

I love how people want to believe that lay offs couldn’t happen this late in the year, get real, October & November are the highest RIF months for all insurance companies. This site has never failed me in the past. The information is accurate. Keep your head in the sand and see where that gets you.

What about Carelon?

Does this mean they won’t be laying off in October like previous posts suggested?

@1fht+1uLaH4UU I’m sure some departments, A lot of things are already moving over to carelon global solutions Philippines.

Will this affect Carelon?

Maybe 2025 isn’t truly expected to be a bad year and they are just using it to get us in the mindset for rif

I was previously RIF'D in December so these can occur any time. I found another position with NO thanks to HR!! It was my manager and the hiring manager who worked together to make my new position happen! I will always be grateful to each of them!!

@1pao+1uLaH4UU

They did a large layoff last year right before open enrollment!

I remember the former CFO, J. Gallina in a town hall meeting saying they refer to Q4 “as layoff season”. And he laughed!

RIFs are not rare in Nov or Dec. Been here 10yrs.

@gnm+1uLaH4UU - WTF are you talking about? Late November, right at Thanksgiving time, has been a traditional RIF time for over twenty years at this place!

Just read in another post that case management is going to be offshore to Carelon global solutions. What a d-mb move

Not "May the odds be in your favor." Like this is Hunger Games or Saw IV. LMFAO!!! Why are they playing with us!
The Purge: Economy! Lol

wouldn’t doubt it. A lot of stuff is moving over to Carelon global solutions in Philippines. which is by far the worst decision they’ve ever made all for what cost savings !?

Not sure about this at all. I can't really believe you would do a large layoff during open enrollment.

@gnm...When I was Rif'd years ago...I was Rif'd on 12/01. I had until 12/30 to find another position...which fortunately I did. So in my opinion late November is not unheard-of.

This sounds quite made up.

Thank you for sharing! Do you have any additional intel on the survey criteria? I was told a number of times my lay off was not performance based and “ I shouldn’t take it personal” although it’s very personal to ME! My Director doesn’t like me and I have reason to believe she poisoned the well and doomed me to be laid off. I could be wrong I could be right but I’m very curious about the survey you mention.

Not sure I believe this....RIFs rarely happen in late November so this seems little odd to me.
