Medicaid is a government health insurance initiative administered by states and funded by both federal and state governments. It serves low-income individuals and families, children, seniors, and people with disabilities, making it one of the largest programs in the U.S. health care system.
Because funding for Medicaid is sourced from taxpayers, shifts in local billing activity indicate how public health funds are distributed within a community.
The “Medical And Surgical Supplies” designation encompasses a collection of Medicaid-billed services determined by care type and organized through standardized HCPCS and CPT code groups. For this report, each billing code was consistently assigned to a specific service category using code prefixes and number fields, enabling examination of related services collectively and ensuring rankings remain accurate over time without double counting.

This marks a roughly 40% increase in just a few years, mainly attributed to higher enrollment and utilization rates during and after the pandemic.
Recent federal budget legislation during the Trump administration has put forward major proposals to reduce federal Medicaid funds and transform the program. For example, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” enacted in 2025, is expected to cut more than $1 trillion from federal Medicaid spending over the next decade while adding work requirements and greater cost-sharing, potentially lowering enrollment and funding for some groups. These policy changes are anticipated to increase the cost burden for states and restrict federal Medicaid growth, although the program continues to serve tens of millions nationwide.
