Thomas R. Suozzi said that they are having a hard time affording to pay for Medicaid for people who need care without paying for dead people and that the problem is especially embarrassing because the state's Department of Health, which operates Medicaid, is also the agency that keeps death records. According to Mr. Suozzi, the solution is a simple technological fix of coordinating the Health Department's computer files.
