Butler Health System employees learned recently that significant financial challenges have necessitated the need for a “significant expense reduction plan.”
CEO Ken DeFurio, who recently led a merger with Excela Health System of Greensburg, sent a letter to all health system employees and medical staff regarding the “particularly challenging” money problems plaguing the health system.
The Butler Eagle acquired a copy of the letter on Tuesday, Feb. 28.
