Mass General Brigham cuts and Brigham nurses’ contract dispute

Mass General Brigham reportedly plans to reduce Home Hospital capacity from about 70 patients in 2024 to no more than 30; the program loses an average of $30 million annually, and layoff details remain undisclosed. Nearly 4,000 Brigham nurses are voting on the system’s final offer, with rejection potentially reviving an authorized indefinite-strike threat. The vote, service effects, and workforce impacts remain unresolved.
