CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (WCIA) — Carle Health’s subsidiary companies, Health Alliance and FirstCarolinaCare, started laying off employees on Tuesday. Earlier this year, Carle announced that nearly all business services from these healthcare providers would end by late 2025.

They also said the decision would result in 612 employees being laid off on a rolling basis starting July 8.

“As Health Alliance and FirstCarolinaCare progressively decrease operations, staff reductions will occur in stages to ensure comprehensive support for member services through the end of 2025. Carle Health is committed to assisting team members in transitioning to new career opportunities. We are constantly reviewing all facilities to determine the best methods to support staff and patient care, including the administrative building at The Fields,” a spokesperson from Carle told WCIA in a statement.

According to East Central Illinois WorkNet, Carle is helping its former employees with their next steps.

“They’re employees of Health Alliance,” mentioned Dr. Justin Arnold, who directs the East Central Workforce Board. “But Carle is managing the connection between us and them. Those employees are appreciative of having someone assist them with finding jobs, exploring options, understanding unemployment benefits, or even considering further education. Generally, they are thankful for the support offered during their transition.”

The East Central Illinois WorkNet offers support services, such as career coaching, job board directions, and even tuition support if someone wants to pursue higher education.
