NEW YORK, April 7 (Xinhua) -- As every U.S. industry is struggling to find workers now, staffing shortages in state Medicaid agencies around the country also come at a challenging time, the National Public Radio (NPR) has reported.
State Medicaid officials have said staffing is one of the top challenges they face, the NPR reported on Monday. The report cited Missouri as a case in point, noting that the state simply doesn't have the workers to keep up - last fiscal year, 20 percent of its employees who handled Medicaid applications left their jobs.
