Medicaid

The data presented in Tables A through N are derived from HCFA 64 reports submitted by states to the Health Care Financing Administration. The HCFA 64 is the form used by states to claim Federal Financial Participation (FFP) for state Medicaid outlays, and is audited by the Federal government. It is thus considered to be one of the most reliable sources of information on state Medicaid spending.

The accompanying tables and graphs present data on Medicaid expenditures for 1915(c) Home and Community-Based Services waivers from FY 1995 through FY 2000. The memo provides detailed data on expenditures for individual waivers. In addition, the materials classify each 1915(c) waiver by target population, and present information on the distribution of expenditures for HCBS services across long term care populations.

This report updates and builds upon the Medicaid 1915(c) home and community based waiver data collected for 1992-1997 and for part of 1998 in two previous studies by Charlene Harrington, Ph.D., for the Health Care Financing Administration (Contract 500-97-0002). This work is part of a larger study on the home and community based service program being conducted for The Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured.

The accompanying two tables and two graphs present data on Medicaid 1915(c) Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver expenditures from Federal Fiscal Years 1995 through 2001. This is the second annual memo we have produced on Medicaid spending for individual HCBS waivers. As we did last year, we have classified each waiver by target population to present information on the distribution of HCBS waiver expenditures across long term care populations.

The data presented in these files is based upon HCFA reports which states submit to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The HCFA 64 report is the form used by the states to claim Federal Financial Participation (FFP) for state Medicaid outlays, and is audited by the Federal government. It is therefore considered one of the more reliable sources of information on state Medicaid spending.

This memorandum and the accompanying tables present data on Medicaid 1915(c) Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver expenditures from Federal Fiscal Years 1997 through 2002.

This memorandum presents data on Medicaid long term care expenditures in Federal Fiscal Year 2002 (September 2001 through September 2002). The accompanying tables present data on Medicaid Expenditures for Long-Term Care services from 1990 to 2002.
