Only 70 positions are being considered layoffs, while the remaining positions are being left open
after retirement and normal attrition. These cuts total about one percent of the twenty-one thousand person staff and include administrative and patient care jobs. Minneapolis-St.Paul Business Journal Petoskeys Hospital Petoskeys Northern Michigan Regional Hospital is laying off about 50 workers because of the growing number of uninsured and less choosing elective surgeries. These cuts come after 65 layoffs declared last fall in the mental health and newborn care departments. Interlochen Public Radio Genesis Medical Center Due to fewer patients, Genesis Medical Center in Iowa is making job cuts by consolidating management positions and eliminating about 25 other jobs. These employees, however, are likely to be reassigned to one of the 125 open positions currently available. KWQC.com IU Health LaPorte Hospital More than 100 employees were laid off at the IU Health LaPorte Hospital, which employs around seventeen hundred people, as part of a cost-savings measure. The cuts were a direct effect of the rising cost of healthcare and number of uninsured unable to pay for treatment. WNDU.com Medicaid In North Texas, a 10 percent rate reduction in Medicaid payments could cause around 5,100 jobs to be lost. The Dallas-Fort Worth Hospital Council expressed its concerns with the level of state funding for Medicaid; sales tax revenue will decrease more than five million dollars with this reduction. The hospitals are working together to minimize the effect on patient care. Dallas Business Journal Cornell Scott Hill Health Center Thirty workers of the 526-member staff at the 16 community health centers of Cornell Scott Hill Health were laid off due to efforts to keep the organization as financially strong as possible after forty-three years. The jobs lost were mostly administrative positions and medical assistants. Although Hill Health no longer has needs for these medical
records and billings jobs, they are actively hiring nurse practitioners and doctors. New Haven Independent Logansport Memorial According to the President and CEO, the hospital will reduce its staff size by an equivalent of 13.5 full-time employees. This will reduce spending to help even out the decline in reimbursement from Medicaid and Medicare. The layoffs are scheduled to be completed by August 1.
