Central Georgia Health System lays off 50 employees | Local & State | Macon.com

Central Georgia Health System, the parent company of The Medical Center of Central Georgia, has laid off about 50 employees as part of a plan to reduce its fiscal 2014 budget to account for potential loss of reimbursements due to health care reform.

Chief Financial Officer Rhonda Perry said Thursday that Central Georgia Health System anticipates potentially $30 million in losses because of reductions in reimbursement of Medicaid, and the job cuts are part of a three-tiered approach to address the shortfall in the fiscal 2014 budget, which begins Oct. 1.
