Medical Assistance Program in South Carolina

South Carolina x 93.778 is a medical-assistance join, not a census

This page pairs CFDA 93.778, MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, with South Carolina place of performance. The listing is the Medical Assistance Program — Medicaid federal financial participation as USAspending stores it. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $25,219,888,258 on eleven awards. The extract does not list enrollees, hospitals, or claims. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state has more need, and not a claim that eleven awards equal eleven separate local offices.

CHIP, Medicare, or different CMS listings sit outside $25,219,888,258 unless they also carry 93.778. Mixing Medicaid with Medicare or CHIP would invent a combined health-coverage figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and uninsured rates is not causation. Uninsured figures are not in the packet. Place of performance as South Carolina locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit the tagged dollars in a particular hospital's account. South Carolina as place of performance locates the tagged awards; it is not a coastal ranking.

Eleven awards behind $25.2 billion

Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible continuations, amendments, and payment-file batches. It is not a census of enrollees, hospitals, or claims. Mean obligation is about $2,292,717,114.36 if $25,219,888,258 were divided evenly across eleven lines — a mechanical ratio, not a published FMAP grant, and not a typical hospital payment. The packet has no acute-versus-long-term-care split inside 93.778.

Eleven lines belong on the overlay table, not in a narrative roster. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Medical Assistance Program in South Carolina for the stored table. Do not convert eleven into a map of South Carolina sites. The $25,219,888,258 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines rather than inferring a census. Eleven lines are scannable on the overlay; that still does not make them a local-office map.

Questions

How much Medical Assistance Program funding is obligated in South Carolina?

USAspending.gov shows $25,219,888,258 in obligations for CFDA 93.778 with South Carolina as place of performance, across eleven awards. The sum is a commitment total on assistance awards, not outlays and not the state's entire health budget. Other listings are outside this join unless they also carry 93.778.

Do 11 awards mean 11 South Carolina hospitals?

No. Award count is a row count of assistance awards and can include formula runs and continuations. It is not a hospital, enrollee, or claim census. The packet does not name agencies. See the South Carolina 93.778 overlay for named lines as USAspending stored them.

Is this South Carolina's entire federal health-coverage funding?

No. The join is CFDA 93.778, Medical Assistance Program (Medicaid), crossed with South Carolina place of performance. Medicare and CHIP use different CFDA numbers. Those dollars are not inside $25,219,888,258 unless the award also carries 93.778.

Is $25.2 billion already paid to South Carolina providers?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on assistance awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $25,219,888,258 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Claim-level payments are not published in this packet. Remaining balances are not in the facts.
