Medicaid is administered by states and funded jointly through federal and state governments. The program covers eligible low-income people, seniors, children, and individuals with disabilities, ranking among the country’s largest health care programs.
Since Medicaid payments are derived from public funds, fluctuations in billing locally illustrate how health care dollars are allocated in a community.
The “Medicine Services and Procedures” category encompasses a set of Medicaid-billed services distinguished by care type, using standardized HCPCS and CPT code groupings.

According to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, total federal and state Medicaid expenditures reached about $871.7 billion in fiscal year 2023, making up roughly 18% of overall national health spending, which is a substantial rise from $613.5 billion in 2019 prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Recent federal budget measures under the Trump administration have included broad proposals to trim federal Medicaid funding and modify the program. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” signed in 2025, is projected to reduce federal Medicaid funding by over $1 trillion throughout the next decade, introducing elements such as work requirements and higher cost-sharing, which could lessen coverage and funding for certain groups. These actions are anticipated to increase the financial burden on states and limit federal Medicaid funding growth, even as the program continues assisting tens of millions of Americans.
