Has anyone heard of coders or clinical documentation staff being let go?

It’s incredibly disheartening to come to work each day in fear of being laid off—especially for someone who has given 20 years to this organization and is already dealing with mental health challenges. It seems like every time we receive a positive Joint Commission survey, layoffs follow. The last one in Queens was in 2019, and the pattern continues.
At the recent town hall, leadership deflected blame onto external factors like the Trump administration, rather than acknowledging the financial impact of the large payouts tied to the misconduct of certain doctors. Why is it that frontline department workers—who show up and do the hard work every day—are the ones being let go, while the doctors involved in these incidents keep their jobs?
This doesn’t feel right. Maybe it’s time someone brought this situation to the attention of the press. If the hospital won’t be held accountable internally, then maybe external scrutiny is needed.

About 30 people have been laid off from Clinical IT so far all at various years of service. A PM with 20 years of service all the way down to an analyst who was still in probation. Not sure what the severance package was.

The medical staff office (mso) at 466 got hit on Friday. They are one of the departments that really don’t abide by the 4:1 schedule. Staff were mostly remote. Manager along with some analyst were laid off.

It’s time for a change at the board level and SVP. We need new leadership. Two years ago they told us to come back after Covid to a 3/2 hybrid schedule and then one week later it was changed to 4/1. The reason behind it was all political! They wanted us to feed the city they didn’t want NYC to turn into SF, total BS! They don’t understand that we can never go back to the 5 days a week in office it doesn’t work, there are too many distractions, we don’t even have our own cubicles. Every damn meeting we are on is zoom. Why don’t they get all the employees who moved out of state back into the office! If we had young leadership they would have kept the hybrid at a 3/2 schedule. Everyone on the board is super old! We need fresh new leadership! How will NYP come out of this morbid situation they created! Morale is so low! We need full 360 change!

Do we really think layoffs will not affect CBO and rev cycle? They are targeting every department at 466. Managers may not know but Director and VP level have a list. Even HR is starting there layoffs on Monday.

For the person that said there will be more layoffs next week for revenue cycle , pharmacist etc . Where are you getting this information from ? The revenue cycle managers don’t have much info on what’s going on . We need reliable sources .

I’m a nurse that was “laid off”. Still in the probationary period I wasn’t give no notice, and the union isn’t at part to help me. (Crazy but I was paying union dues) My paycheck from payday is all I have to my name . I had no notice of time to prepare for a “lay off”.

I was given no notice or, documentation

I was given the recommendation to apply for unemployment and reapply at a later date

Until they figure out how to have patients be able to make appointments that aren’t months away this will get worse. The competitors can do it faster and with many docs from Columbia working at these places so the quality is good.

Let go a bunch of my coworkers. During work. They had to keep working after this. Just by seniority. The worst ones they kept. They don’t care about job performance.

I hope people know management is reading everything posted here. It will help shape their messaging and reactions. On the corporate side, restructuring and realignment is in the works. Not all of that is bad because there are people with manager titles who don't manage anyone. Also on the corporate side my big fear is that they use the reduction in staff to bring people back to the office 5 days a week. Time will tell

If we fill out the form to unionize while they’re still laying people off, would it put a target on our backs? Are the forms anonymous?

1 more week left! I fear they might be waiting for the go-live next week to simmer and then lay off more employees at 466 by the end of the week.

I wonder what corwin and donely are coming up for the next leadership announcement? This was a horrible layoff. The board needs to worry about the culture at NYP and why are we losing patients?! Why are supposed surgeries down? They too worried about this new 1111 building that they forget the employees are the culture of NYP. We are the ones who will recommend our family members/friends to NYP. Now they can forget that. I will tell my friends to go elsewhere. NYP is not what is used to be.

I've been employed at NYP for OVER 20 loyal years to be layed off with no explanation other than, the position is being cut. Only 6 months severance and cobra insurance. Can't even use NYP Cope after being layed off, when employees need it the most. This is disgusting. Where is the culture of respect they brag about? Where is the empathy? I have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support I've received from coworkers who are just as confused as I am.

If “Exceeds Expectations” is being let go for non performance, than then how much a-s kissing have you done to keep your job?

Rumor was also if you made way more than your job title or were on the extreme end of the salary Bell curve they canned you or reassigned with a paycut or different title. Also heard every department needed to chip in a certain dollar value to contribute. So its easier to get rid of 1 to save 3 vs the other way around.

Alot of directors and managers and pcds also got cut if th supervisor could manage that team i feel like from hearing some of the names.

There is also still another huge case to be settled, and it's the same attorney who secured the $1B settlement.

At least for non clinical, many got cut based on their performance vs their similar titles ( in terms of actual trackable work) and shift saturation. Especially at 466. A few ppl got moved to the newer sites and sites that will be opening up. Some of the people in the "retirement age zone" got let go as well. And Supposedly they are paying out unused vacation.

CHONY’s NP and RNs seems to be hardest hit. They are part of nysna. They are targeting low grids with “over staff” nurses. By the rate of how things are going. They must have planned this way in advance. They already know who to come for. I wish us all the best. Remember, if you agree to the severance you cannot take legal actions. It is a legal binding contract that you are leaving “voluntarily”.
