I recently experienced a layoff from IKS Health, where I worked in the medical billing sector. The company, which markets itself as a KPO, is letting go of over 500 employees due to unrealistic expectations set around a major process called GIA. This has significantly impacted the work culture, leaving many of us feeling devastated. It's unusual for layoffs to occur in medical billing companies, as the sector typically struggles to retain employees long-term. I'm still processing this situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

Today, I learned that IKS Health, where I work, is laying off over 500 employees due to unmet expectations on a major process called GIA. This has really impacted our work culture, and I'm feeling quite devastated by the news. Layoffs are unusual in the medical billing sector, as most people tend to stay long-term, so this feels particularly shocking. I had been considering a senior-level role here, but now I'm unsure about the company's future.
