Scripps Begins To Stabilize As It Undertakes Restructuring
Scripps Health's operating performance is starting to stabilize as the San Diego-based system takes steps to get its costs under control. The four-hospital group is restructuring and plans to eliminate about 100 jobs. Scripps CEO Chris Van Gorder notified employees in a memo earlier this year that the job cuts will come mostly from management and administration. The system spent nearly $2.4 million on restructuring costs in the quarter ended March 31, according to its quarterly earnings report. (Kutscher, 5/12)
