Sentara Health notified employees this week that approximately 200 positions will be cut, causing layoffs, after a decline in Sentara Health Plan enrollments.
The 200 positions represent around 1% of Sentara's 34,000 employees, the organization said, in a statement Friday. However, not all employees in those positions will be laid off. Sentara said it will try to find the impacted employees another role within the company.
The majority of the positions being cut are in Virginia and within the Sentara Health Plans department. Some positions will also be cut in nine other states. The roles span multiple levels as well, but 40% will be leadership positions, Sentara said.
