The layoffs are effective immediately, and some employees will get severance packages, according to a written statement Highmark sent to Penn Live. There are some open positions within the company that a number of affected employees could fill.
“While this was a difficult decision, it was made with the best long-term interest of our employees and customers. It will position the company to continue its success in a very competitive market and advance our patient-centered mission in the most effective and efficient manner,” Highmark said in the statement cited by Penn Live.
