FARGO, N.D. (AP) -- Dakotas-based Sanford Health is streamlining management in a plan estimated to save the growing system $10 million per year.
Sanford CEO Kelby Krabbenhoft tells The Forum 38 administrators have accepted early retirement or a new position in the restructuring. Twelve more will be bought out.
Sanford also is planning to centralize management of system-wide functions such as laboratory services. That will mean a new office building next to the $500 million medical center being built in Fargo, North Dakota's largest city.
Top corporate offices will remain in Sioux Falls, South Dakota's largest city.
Sanford Health runs nearly three dozen hospitals and more than 140 clinics in eight states. It has about 26,000 employees. It's adding 80 positions to handle a Medicare billing system that will be based in Fargo.
