Another 43 people, on top of the 20 laid off earlier in the year, have lost their jobs at Mandanâs Heartview after the closure of its inpatient and detox services, according to executive director, Al Gillette. During the 1980s, Heartview had more than 100 staff members, but, since 1988, has experienced continued staff reductions, resulting in only eight people to staff the entire day treatment center. The cost cutting actions are a result of changes in insurance coverage called Managed Care, designed to cut medical costs by exchanging in-person services to outpatient treatment. The Mandan Heartview Foundation was established in 1964.
