Medicaid, a public health insurance program administered at the state level and jointly funded by federal and state governments, serves low-income residents, older adults, children, and people with disabilities, making it a major part of the nation’s health care infrastructure.

As Medicaid is financed by tax dollars, shifts in local billing reflect how community health care resources are allocated.

The “Medicine Services and Procedures” classification encompasses Medicaid-billed services specified by type of care, grouped according to standardized HCPCS and CPT code sets. In this analysis, billing codes were sorted into defined service categories using consistent prefixes and ranges, providing for analysis of related services without double-counting and aiding accurate tracking over time.

Statewide in Texas, Medicine Services and Procedures was the fifth largest category by Medicaid payment in 2024.

According to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, total federal and state Medicaid outlays reached about $871.7 billion in the 2023 fiscal year, which represented approximately 18% of total national health expenditures, up sharply from about $613.5 billion in 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic.

This change reflects growth of nearly 40% over several years, attributed to higher enrollment and increased use of services during and following the pandemic.

Federal budget measures passed under the Trump administration have put forward significant reductions in Medicaid funding and proposed structural reforms. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” signed into law in 2025, is projected to reduce federal Medicaid spending by over $1 trillion over the next decade, introducing policies such as work requirements and increased cost-sharing, which could lower funding and coverage for some recipients. These policy changes are anticipated to shift more costs to state budgets and limit the future expansion of federal Medicaid contributions, all while the program covers tens of millions of Americans.
