The layoffs, which equate to less than 1% of the health system’s workforce, affect management-level positions across all hospital locations, according to WMCHealth. No patient-facing roles were affected.
“In order to create a more efficient operating structure, WMCHealth Network is realigning its operations by centralizing services to better leverage the strengths of our entire Network and ensure the long-term health of our hospitals,” the health system said in a statement. “As part of this realignment, we have made the difficult decision to consolidate and, therefore, reduce a number of administrative and corporate service roles across the system.”
WMCHealth is a 1,700-bed system with nine hospitals on seven campuses. It employs more than 13,000 people and has almost 3,000 attending physicians, according to its website.
