As Renton, Wash.-based Providence Health & Services works to streamline its billing processes, 42 jobs in Anchorage are being eliminated, according to a KTUU report.
Providence is moving most of its billing positions to Washington and Oregon, according to the report.
Anchorage-based employees affected by the move can apply for a job in one of Providence's other hospitals in Alaska or one of the system's other regions. The system is also providing career counseling, according to the report.
