The healthcare facility has eliminated 15 senior executive positions and may make additional job cuts, according to the report, but these cost-saving measures will not affect its plans to open a new $700 million hospital pavilion in 2012

In addition to the layoffs, the organization is working to reduce costs by finding ways to consolidate and eliminate inefficiencies and duplication in its facilities.
