Medicaid is a health insurance program operated by states and funded together by state and federal governments. It serves low-income people and families, seniors, children, and individuals with disabilities, making it a major element within the U.S. healthcare system.

Because taxpayers finance Medicaid, variations in local billing depict the ways public dollars are deployed for health care in each community.

This jump equals an increase of about 40% within several years, due largely to expanded enrollment and increased utilization driven by the pandemic and subsequent period.

Recently, federal budget policy changes during the Trump administration included major reforms aimed at curtailing federal Medicaid dollars and restructuring the program. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” enacted in 2025, is forecasted to reduce federal Medicaid spending by more than $1 trillion over 10 years, and implements changes such as new work requirements and increased cost-sharing—which could limit access and reduce funding for selected enrollees. These adjustments are broadly expected to shift greater cost responsibility to states and slow the rate of federal support, although Medicaid is projected to continue serving tens of millions annually.
