AnMed to Eliminate Jobs, Outsource Some Services

AnMed Health will eliminate 94 jobs before the end of the month due to "budget challenges." The 65 positions that are currently vacant, will also be eliminated. 

The hospital system said reimbursement declines, softer volumes, and the cost of necessary investments in technology have contributed to the budget challenges. Some services, such as the AnMed Health Physician Surgery Center which closed Monday, will be closed or outsourced.

For example, Med-Trans Corp. will take over full management of the LifeFlight operations.
