Evernorth Care Group, the medical practice division of Cigna, confirmed the layoffs in a WARN letter sent to the state of Arizona on Nov. 11.

@hp honor already extending offers to the people they wanted to keep. Not all clinics are going to remain open so there were no spots for a lot of people.
Just like EN’s home based care was sacked earlier this year.
If ECG is being acquired - why lay them off? Seems like Honor should get to decide what to do with the company they are buying... UNLESS Honor is asking Cigna to trim the fat before the deal. Either way - this seems cruel.
Just the beginning
