reorganization of Kaiser Permanente HMO, according to Eric Noll, associate director of
human resources.
Only 39 employees who have been using the downtown Schenectady facility — or
others that will be phased out in three to four months — will be have to go to
facilities in Rotterdam, Latham or one of the physicians operating locally through the
plan, Noll said.
Union has 132 employees enrolled in Kaiser Permanente, 272 in CDPHP, and 153 in Union
POS.
