UTMB to Lay Off 363
By joshua | Dated: 05-19-2010
The University of Texas Medical Branch announced Wednesday that it would lay off 363 people statewide. The University is trying to close an $82 million budget gap and the job cuts will save $22 million. Job cuts will occur within the UTMB Correctional Managed Care program, which administers medical care throughout the Texas state prison system. The Correctional Managed Care Program will see its staff shrink by more than 10%.
Texas maintains the largest prison system in the United States, with more than 150,000 prisoners. As those prisoners have aged, medical costs have risen to their current levels, said UTMB president Dr. David L. Callender.

Testimonial of the Week
What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
