A friend of mine is encouraging me to go to work at Humana. I am scared to quit my ICU hospital position. The Humana position allows you to work from home after 3 months. Does anyone have any details regarding this job? I received alot of info from my friend but I would like to get some additional opinions.
1) Job Description
2) Benefits (any information you have and when they kick in)
3) Hours
4) Salary
5) Is it a positive environment?
6) How many days a week do you have to work?
7) When does the health insurance start and how much is it for a family plan?
8) Anymore information you may have....
Thank you :)

I worked at Humana for 7 years before I left to do nursing full time. I would have done case management there but I had to have experience too.
The benefits Humana offers are great. I don't remember how much insurance was for family. The other benefits are excellent such as tuition reimbursement, the amount of vacation time you get etc. if you're in nursing a lot of times you can work from home and pretty much set your own hours.
I can't say the job description but I know in the area I worked in they'd contact me a lot for old benefit documents to see if certain procedures were covered in that persons plan at the time of service.
Overall I think It's an excellent company to work for and I'd go back one day if i get tired of being a floor nurse.

I would be very interested in working for Humana. Have you checked out the Case Management section on this board? Case Management Nursing

you can have my position...I'm leaving for a bedside job. After denying care to medicare members for the past 8 months, I can not sleep. Can't bear to hear a 65 yr old woman say that her doctor is refusing aggressive care for new diagnosis of breast cancer because she's too old, or a 70 yr old commercial fisherman being told he's not getting a second opinion - just deal with going blind. I'm not in case management - in a dumping ground/complaint section as a "clinical advisor". My heart will not bear the refusals anymore.
