A former employee, Emily Cihacek, lost her job unexpectedly and experienced significant psychological stress. She has since turned to selling handmade Perler beads on Etsy to support herself. This shift reflects a broader trend of workers seeking alternative income streams through online marketplaces. While Etsy offers independence, it lacks the security of traditional employment. Experts caution that these platforms are not a universal solution for job loss.

I’ve heard a lot of Marketplace but not Medicare.

Has anyone heard anything for homestate health ambetter marketplace in terms of the layoffs?

seems like we have to wait to get a COBRA packet in the mail from Centene before electing.. so I'm like is there a gap in care??? and wondering if we still qualify for marketplace if we do cobra for the 3 months.

I saw the layoff/VSP will have an effect on all markets but does any know which departments are safe or aren’t? I read an article earlier and it seems this comes after falling membership with marketplace plans

Concerned in the BH UM arena for coming layoffs. Not enough work to keep all of us at normal productivity with current loss in Marketplace.

Even no brand Chinese products on Amazon have better quality.

Excellent corporate strategy playing out in the Marketplace division.

Any word on what’s going on with the WellCare LOB ? Been getting some marketplace work/large caseloads/restructuring..

At the 11th hour to keep HON onboard . They will now lead geographies and marketplace again with CW shifting to a new role tbc

I've been told marketplace is the main target of the next wave...no specific depts just that area in general is the target.

Will converse EMEA ops be impacted? I haven't heard

I heard they were ditching it and instead going to give us $2500/$5000 on Jan 1 to put towards purchasing health insurance from the state exchange. I went in the web to see how much that would cost and it's over $1800/ mo so that's not even 3 mos they'd be paying for.

Can anyone confirm if this is true?
