More than 200 people were laid off at Highmark’s information technology subsidiary, enGen, recently.
Highmark Health confirmed on Thursday afternoon that in total 208 enGen employees were laid off including 41people in the company’s Camp Hill-area office.
Highmark provided the following statement to PennLive:
“Highmark Health is actively transforming to meet the changing needs of members and our communities through our Living Health model while maintaining financial strength and stability. This transformation requires that we continue to reimagine and simplify our operations to effectively and efficiently achieve the quintuple aim -- better patient experience, clinician satisfaction, health equity and health outcomes, with lower costs.”
“We are focused on building the workforce of the future, which requires identifying talent gaps, investing in in-demand roles, such as nursing, and adapting technologies, such as AI, to better anticipate demand and drive value for consumers.”
Last year, Highmark laid off more than 300 people.
EnGen was previously known as HM Health Solutions and was founded in 2014.
