CFDA 93.778 — federal program obligations to Pennsylvania

Total obligated

$134.99B

Awards

20

The Medical Assistance Program (CFDA 93.778) shows $126,545,165,618 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Pennsylvania, on only 20 awards. This page is a catalog-program × state join, not a Medicaid enrollment census and not a conversion of obligations into Treasury outlays. Twenty rows can still carry a nine-figure-plus book when the award file stores large federal-to-state vehicles. USAspending.gov is the source; SpendingVault indexes the pair.

Key figures

  • CFDA 93.778 × Pennsylvania records $126,545,165,618 in USAspending obligations.
  • Only 20 awards sit under that sum; the mean is about $6.33 billion per record, not a typical claim.
  • The join is not a Medicaid ranking and not proof Pennsylvania caused the spending.
  • Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.

Twenty awards, one Medicaid catalog line, one Commonwealth tag

CFDA 93.778 is Medical Assistance Program—the catalog number used for this Medicaid assistance reporting line. Pennsylvania (PA) is the place-of-performance state. Their intersection is $126,545,165,618 and 20 records. A 93.778 award tagged to Ohio is not here. A Pennsylvania Medicare hospital-insurance or SMI row is a different CFDA. This page does not add those Medicare cells to the Medicaid total.

Twenty awards against $126,545,165,618 yields a mean of about $6,327,258,281 per record. That mean is arithmetic on packet facts, not a typical beneficiary’s annual coverage and not a typical provider claim. Federal Medicaid funding is often booked as a small number of large assistance actions to a state agency. This packet does not name the recipients of the 20 rows.

Harrisburg did not “win” $126,545,165,618 by appearing as a geography code, and HHS did not “choose Pennsylvania” in a sense this extract can prove. Correlation of 93.778 with PA is not causation. The overlay Medical Assistance Program in Pennsylvania is the live table.

What Medical Assistance means on USAspending.gov

The official catalog title is MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. SpendingVault does not grade Pennsylvania’s Medicaid expansion status, its managed-care model, or its benefit package. $126,545,165,618 is an obligation sum, not a policy verdict. CFDA 93.778 is the national program hub without the Pennsylvania filter. This packet has no national Medicaid total, so none is quoted.

CMS MSIS/T-MSIS enrollment files, CMS-64 expenditure reports, and Commonwealth Department of Human Services dashboards are other series. They are not the 20 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.
