In a WARN notice filed Dec. 3, the Carlsbad, Calif.-based company announced plans to lay off 57 employees by Feb. 1. On Dec. 4, an Acutus news release said the downsizing is “expected to meaningfully reduce cash burn” and operating expenses. 

The company said it “will reduce operations to a scale designed solely to support the manufacturing and distribution of Medtronic’s left-heart access products” to fulfill deals Acutus and Medtronic made in 2022. 

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
