This is roughly 18% of national health expenditures, a sharp increase from approximately $613.5 billion in 2019, just before the COVID-19 pandemic.

Recent federal budget laws passed during the Trump administration introduced substantial proposals to cut Medicaid funding and change its structure. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” enacted in 2025, is projected to reduce federal Medicaid expenditures by more than $1 trillion over the next decade, and institutes policies like work requirements and increased cost-sharing. These actions could lower coverage and funding for some Medicaid recipients, potentially shifting additional costs to states as federal support growth becomes restricted, even as Medicaid continues to provide services to tens of millions of individuals.
