   Union dispute: NYSNA says 12 utilization-review nurses in the Bronx are being replaced by AI-powered software and filed a grievance; Montefiore denies the characterization and did not confirm the layoff notices. Also cited in Challenger's July 2026 report as an AI-related cut outside tech.

   NYSNA grievance says if AI use results in 'diminishment' of union jobs, management must meet with the union; Montefiore spokesperson: 'The claims by NYSNA are inaccurate and misleading.'
