Notes: 

Spending includes both state and federal payments to Medicaid. The payment amounts from the source data reflect payments for services during federal fiscal year 2006, based on date of payment.

Sources: 

The Urban Institute and Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured estimates based on data from Medicaid Statistical Information System (MSIS) reports from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), 2009.

Definitions: 

Elderly: includes all people age 65 and older.
Disabled: includes younger persons (age 64 and under) who are reported as eligible due to a disability.
Adults: are generally people age 18 to 64.
Children: are generally people age 17 and younger.
However, some people under age 18 may be classified as "adults" and some people age 18 and older may be classified as "children" depending on why they qualify for the program and each state''s practices.

Federal Fiscal Year: Unless otherwise noted, years proceeded by "FY" on statehealthfacts.org refer to the Federal Fiscal Year, which runs from October 1 through September 30. For example, FY 2009 refers to the period from October 1, 2008 through September 30, 2009.

Footnotes: 
  1. Maine data are for FY2004.
  2. Nevada data are for FY2005.
