Healthcare on track to set record for mass layoffs

This is nothing article with no facts to substantiate the claims being made. I followed the link to Modern Healthcare on line and again no facts. Based on the limited information in the article, we the readers have no idea what occupations are being laid off. There have been published reports that Big Pharma is reducing its sales force so is part of the "healthcare" mass layoffs? The truth is that there is a critical shortage of nurses, pharmacists, and physical therapists across the nation with the greatest shortage being with nurses. If you are going to publish something then verify the facts.

as a consumer of a bloated health care system , i don't find it all that terrible that many organizations are cutting employees. my hope is that lower expenses at many organizations will lower costs for the end user. health care got bloated, without any discernable improvement in services, just like most everything else during this bubble. so, it's about time that cost cutting came into play.
