Medicaid is a publicly funded health insurance program financed by both state and federal governments. The program covers low-income individuals, seniors, children, and people with disabilities, making it one of the nation’s largest health care payers.
Because taxpayer funds support Medicaid, shifts in local billing reveal where community health resources are being spent.
The Temporary National Codes (Non-Medicare) grouping includes a selection of Medicaid-billed services determined by the nature of care, sorted using established HCPCS and CPT coding protocols.

Recent federal budget measures passed during the Trump administration include major plans to curb federal Medicaid expenditures and alter the program’s design. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” signed in 2025, is estimated to reduce federal Medicaid spending by more than $1 trillion over 10 years and brings policies like work requirements and higher cost-sharing, potentially leading to less funding and coverage for some recipients. States are expected to bear a greater share of the financial burden while federal support is projected to grow at a slower pace, though the program will continue to serve tens of millions of Americans.
