North Memorial laying off 103 workers, cutting outpatient mental health in Robbinsdale

Financial pressures are forcing North Memorial Health to eliminate 103 jobs as well as outpatient mental health services at its flagship hospital.

Officials say the health system is struggling at its Robbinsdale medical center with continued growth in patients covered by government-sponsored health plans, which pay less for services than commercial health insurers.

In addition, North Memorial Health learned earlier this year that Hennepin County is eliminating a $22 million subsidy that helped cover expenses during 2023.
