Providence St. Joseph Medical Center in Montana Lays Off 10 Employees

Providence St. Joseph Medical Center in Polson, Mont., has laid off 10 employees as part of its efforts to save $500,000, according to a Missoulian report.

Lower inpatient volumes and declining reimbursements in conjunction with rising charity care have forced the hospital to announce the layoffs, which follow other cost-cutting measures such as eliminating vacant positions.

The layoffs affected those working in nonclinical departments, including a transcription and dietary supervisor and executive assistant.
