Medical Assistance Program in Louisiana

Ten awards on the Louisiana Medicaid catalog line

CFDA 93.778 is Medical Assistance Program. Louisiana (LA) is the place-of-performance state. Their intersection is $55,400,592,595 and 10 records. A 93.778 award tagged to Mississippi or Texas is not here. A Louisiana SNAP, SSDI, or Medicare row is a different CFDA. This page does not add those programs to the Medicaid total.

Ten awards against $55,400,592,595 yields a mean of about $5,540,059,260 per record. That mean is arithmetic on packet facts, not a typical beneficiary year and not a typical provider claim. Federal Medicaid funding is often booked as a handful of large assistance actions. This packet does not name the recipients of the 10 rows.

Baton Rouge did not “win” $55,400,592,595 by appearing as a geography code. HHS did not “choose Louisiana” in a sense this extract can prove. Correlation of 93.778 with LA is not causation. The overlay Medical Assistance Program in Louisiana is the live table.

Medical Assistance as a USAspending.gov catalog title

The official title is MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. SpendingVault does not grade Louisiana’s Medicaid expansion status, its waiver inventory, or its managed-care model. $55,400,592,595 is an obligation sum, not a policy verdict. CFDA 93.778 is the national hub without the Louisiana filter. This packet has no national Medicaid total, so none is quoted.

CMS-64 expenditure reports, T-MSIS enrollment files, and Louisiana Department of Health dashboards are other series. They are not the 10 USAspending.gov awards. Mixing an enrollment count from those files with this join would invent a per-enrollee dollar figure the packet does not support.
