A health services company whose filing states one full-time equivalent total and describes a pharmacy business and a home and community care business without counting either, so the two are split by description.
The figures on this page come from the company's own annual report and from BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. They are estimates with a stated method. Nothing here says what the company will do: within reach is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings.
What follows from the reading
Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 22% now, 26% at the end of 2027, 27% at the end of 2028, 28% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 28% desk work, 28% people work and 45% body work. These are the site's industry estimates weighted by the shares below: estimates with a stated method and range, not a forecast of what the company will do. By the same patterns, at the end of 2028 about 72% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 21% becomes checking a model's work and 5% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.
