Amid C-suite changes and large acquisition deals, Novant Health is making its third round of layoffs in 2023. The Winston-Salem health system is outsourcing some of its IT operations to Wipro, a technology company based in India. Novant declined to say how many employees would be affected but said it would “fluctuate based on individual interests... [with] some having the opportunity to consider newly assigned roles and responsibilities with the redesign of this new model.” ... In 2023, Novant has cut more than 200 jobs—the largest workforce reduction for the health system in nearly a decade.
