The Centene subsidiary will keep its lease for 90,000 square feet of office space in the CrossPoint Business Park of Amherst, N.Y., but will reimagine the space to become the payer’s “primary talent hub in the region” as the company shifts toward permanent remote and hybrid workstyles.
Fidelis employs about 5,000 people across New York and did not specify where it would be ending leases.
In April, Centene said it would be reducing its real estate footprint nationwide by 65 percent, which is expected to save the company up to $200 million annually.
Other payers such as UnitedHealthcare and Molina also significantly reduced office space this year.
At the Becker's 5th Annual Fall Payer Issues Roundtable, taking place November 2–3 in Chicago, payer executives and healthcare leaders will come together to discuss value-based care, regulatory changes, cost management strategies and innovations shaping the future of payer-provider collaboration.
