Multiple primary care clinics in Minnesota and Wisconsin will be consolidated following a spate of job cuts at Minneapolis-based Fairview Health Services, according to an Oct. 5 report from KSTP.
About 900 jobs will be cut as the healthcare system saw $163 million lost in the first half of the year, the report said. The health system also has organizational changes planned.
