Welch Allyn told authorities in Oregon that it plans to shutter a plant in Beaverton in December, laying off the 84 employees who work there.

Utica, N.Y.-based Welch Allyn said in 2012 that it would shed about 10% of its global workforce, or 275 jobs, over 3 years due to the medical device tax enacted as part of Obamacare.
