Henrico medical supplies provider to lay off 73 employees

Henrico County-based medical supplies provider Home Care Delivered will lay off 73 employees, including more than 50 in Virginia, on Dec. 10 due to a restructuring of some company functions.

Founded in 1996, the company sells insurance-covered medical items — such as diabetes testing, continuous glucose monitors, incontinence products and wound care supplies. These are delivered directly to the patient’s home.

Home Care Delivered notified the state of the layoffs on Monday, in compliance with the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act. In the letter, Home Care Delivered Chief Financial Officer James Jarrett said the layoffs are permanent. The letter says the employees work remotely and report to the company’s headquarters at 11013 W. Broad St. in Glen Allen. Of these employees, 53 work in Virginia, while the rest work out of state.

“After a strategic review, Home Care Delivered restructured several back-office functions to align with industry best practices,” a company spokesperson said in a statement. “These positions are not customer-facing. These changes enhance our ability to deliver the quality care, compassionate service and reliable support to patients and providers.”

The spokesperson said Home Care Delivered will be maintaining its corporate headquarters, along with its eight other offices throughout the United States.

Home Care Delivered has approximately 300 employees companywide. The company did not answer whether it anticipates further workforce reductions.

According to the letter, a union does not represent the affected employees, and they do not have any bumping rights.
