Medicaid is a state-administered public health insurance program funded jointly by the federal and state governments. Covering low-income individuals, families, seniors, children, and people with disabilities, it remains one of the nation’s largest health care programs.
Since Medicaid is taxpayer-funded, any changes in local billing levels highlight how public health care resources are spent within a community.
The Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment category groups Medicaid-billed services by care type, using standardized HCPCS and CPT coding schemes. Each code was assigned to a single service area based on consistent prefixes and number ranges, ensuring related services are analyzed together, avoiding double counting, and preserving ranking accuracy over time.

According to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, federal and state spending on Medicaid reached about $871.7 billion in fiscal year 2023, making up roughly 18% of total U.S. health expenditures—a notable increase from approximately $613.5 billion in 2019, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This jump represents roughly 40% growth in just a few years, prompted in large part by expanded enrollment and increased use throughout and following the pandemic.
Recent federal budgeting—enacted under the Trump administration—featured sweeping proposals to reduce overall federal Medicaid outlays and shift the program’s structure. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” approved in 2025, is set to cut federal Medicaid funding by over $1 trillion during the next decade and introduces policies such as work requirements and higher cost-sharing, which may limit coverage and funds for certain recipients. These changes are expected to bring greater financial responsibility to states and slow the increase in federal support, while Medicaid still serves tens of millions across the country.
