WWMT-TV Newschannel 3 aired a story Sept. 9 on the radiology workforce shortage in hospitals, including a shortage of radiologists and radiology technicians.
MHA Executive Vice President Laura Appel was interviewed for the story, explaining how the shortage impacts hospital operations and what hospitals are doing to address workforce shortages.
“People that have a trauma, an emergency, an urgency, that is all going to be the first thing that hospitals are doing,” said Appel. “Finding someone to read those images and get those results.”
Members with any questions regarding media requests should contact John Karasinski at the MHA.
