Children's Mercy announces layoffs for 100+ employees: ‘We face rising costs'

Children’s Mercy announced Monday that it would eliminate 115 positions across its health system and transfer 473 other roles to an outside company. In a statement to The Star, the health care system said the cuts represented about 1.2% of its workforce. Most, it said, were in nonclinical, administrative, leadership and support roles. Children’s Mercy also said the 473 “revenue cycle and scheduling” roles would be moved to Ensemble Health Partners, but those positions would continue to support the health system. “Children’s Mercy is committed to providing exceptional care for patients, families, and our community and to expanding access to pediatric care close to home,” Children’s Mercy leaders said in a statement. “Like children’s hospitals nationwide, we face rising costs and reimbursement that has not kept pace. We continue to evolve our organizational structure to ensure we can remain one of only 28 independent, freestanding children’s hospitals in the country, focused on kids.” The announcement comes two weeks after Children’s Mercy said health plans offered through the Affordable Care Act Marketplace had excluded the pediatric health system as an in-network provider. The coverage change will take effect on Jan. 1, Children’s Mercy said. “Children’s Mercy wants to participate in ACA

Missouri Milk Comes In Glass Bottles Here, And Visitors Can Watch Them Get Washed And Filled Again

Soda-flavored milk. Cotton candy milk. Both come in glass bottles, and many of those bottles go back to the farm to be washed and filled again. I love that this Missouri dairy treats its returnable milk bottles like boomerangs. You pay a deposit, bring the bottle back, and it heads right into the wash line.

Kansas City Weighs $20 Million Tax Break for Florida Data Center Firm

Kansas City's City Council is set to decide Nov. 12 whether to hand a Florida-based data-center company more than $20 million in local tax breaks, a vote that has pulled a grassroots watchdog group into the fight over who pays for the region's booming AI infrastructure. The company at the center of it, The Constant Company, LLC, operates an AI data center at 3420 North Arlington Ave. in the Northland, and the proposal would pair a sizable bond authorization with a decade of reduced property taxes.

Fill the jobs, audit the books: Stacy Lake’s back-to-basics pitch for a county on fire

Stacy Lake never planned to become a politician. She always wanted to help her community, but the courtroom is where she always planned to do it. A civil litigation attorney for more than a decade, Lake started out representing people caught in the municipal court system, where a single ticket can snowball into harsher charges and mounting fines. She later took on discrimination cases, where tight filing deadlines can kill a claim before it ever reaches a courtroom.

Detained KC rabbi speaks out on aiding Palestinian farmers in the West Bank

Editor's Note: Kansas City Rabbi Doug Alpert writes about his experience being detained by Israeli forces in the West Bank. Alpert, who is back in Kansas City, wrote in an email: “Other than spending the day of uncertainty with threat of deportation, we were not treated poorly. Given food and beverage and allowed to use the restroom when needed. We were detained about 7 hours.” When I signed up to attend a weeklong “Protect the Harvest” in the West Bank, a program to assist Palestinian families in harvesting their olives, I did not anticipate that I would be part of an international incident. I went to pick olives at the invitation of Palestinian families t as a needed response to years of human rights violations by the Israeli government preventing these farmers from accessing their lands; checkpoints preventing access, stealing Palestinian land only to transfer it to illegal settlements in the West Bank, and arrests without cause. The situation has become more dire with violent attacks by settlers, poisoning animals and intimidation by settler gangs. Olives are not only essential to the Palestinian economy, but also a sacred tradition. Palestinian land committed to growing olives has been in families for
