Issue Brief on Medicaid Financing

The issue brief reviews how federal and state/territory governments share the costs of Medicaid funding, state budget cycles and projecting future cost trends in the Executive branch, key factors that affect Medicaid spending, and the cost drivers that impact the costs of operating Medicaid in the future: prescription drugs, long-term services and support, and price increases.
