Medical Assistance Program federal funding in Arkansas

Arkansas x 93.778 is a medical-assistance join, not a census

This page pairs CFDA 93.778, MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, with Arkansas place of performance. The listing is the Medical Assistance Program — Medicaid federal financial participation as USAspending stores it. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $24,314,367,629 on nine 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 nine awards equal nine separate local offices.

CHIP, Medicare, or different CMS listings sit outside $24,314,367,629 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 Arkansas locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit the tagged dollars in a particular hospital's account. Arkansas as place of performance locates the tagged awards; it is not a Delta ranking.

Nine awards behind $24.3 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 $2,701,596,403.22 if $24,314,367,629 were divided evenly across nine 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.

Nine lines belong on the overlay table, not in a narrative roster. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Medical Assistance Program in Arkansas for the stored table. Do not convert nine into a map of Arkansas sites. The $24,314,367,629 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines rather than inferring a census. Nine lines are scannable on the overlay; that still does not make them a local-office map.

Medical-assistance obligations are not claims already paid to providers

Medical Assistance Program awards often obligate as a handful of large CMS lines to a state Medicaid agency and draw as the federal share of claims is billed. The $24,314,367,629 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of patients treated and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. An allocation table dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses CFDA 93.778, Arkansas geography, and the obligation metric.

The listing title is Medical Assistance Program. This extract does not split managed care from fee-for-service, and it does not split the federal share from the state share. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, nine awards, CFDA 93.778, and Arkansas. This page will not invent a share. Medicare Hospital Insurance and CHIP sit on different CFDA numbers.

What the Arkansas 93.778 table omits

The extract has no enrollee count, no claim table, and no provider roster. Facts remain $24,314,367,629, nine awards, CFDA 93.778, and Arkansas. This page will not invent a ranking against other states' 93.778 joins. Medicare and CHIP are different listings, not subsets of 93.778.

Arkansas federal spending and Arkansas programs place 93.778 among other listings. CFDA 93.778 is the national catalog line. All spending ties indexes other CFDA x state pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of HHS / CMS spending the packet never computed. The $24,314,367,629 figure is the tagged pair only. Nine awards remain formula-style state-agency rows, not a census of enrollees, hospitals, or claims.

Where the 93.778 x Arkansas overlay lives

Start with Medical Assistance Program in Arkansas for the nine-award table behind $24,314,367,629. CFDA 93.778 is the nationwide listing. Arkansas federal spending and Arkansas programs give state context. All spending ties is the shelf for other program-by-state joins on the same obligation metric. Nine awards totaling $24,314,367,629 remain formula-style state-agency rows, not a census of enrollees, hospitals, or claims. Names, unit counts, and per-unit amounts are omitted because they are not in the facts. Read the overlay rows as stored; this page will not invent a Arkansas budget share.

How to read the Arkansas × CFDA 93.778 pair

A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is the assistance listing (CFDA 93.778). The other is place of performance as Arkansas. The headline $24,314,367,629 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that CFDA 93.778 caused Arkansas's economy to grow, or that Arkansas caused CFDA 93.778 awards to exist. Correlation between geography and a catalog code is the join — nothing more.

Use the internal links to step off this pair: the statewide spending shelf, the national program listing, the state's other programs, and the ties index. Each of those pages uses the same obligation metric unless a page says otherwise. If you need award-level names, open the overlay rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory. If you need a different metric — outlays, current-year only, or a different geography — that metric is not in this packet. Do not annualize $24,314,367,629 into a per-year run rate: no fiscal year is in the facts. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join.

Questions

How much Medical Assistance Program funding is obligated in Arkansas?

USAspending.gov shows $24,314,367,629 in obligations for CFDA 93.778 with Arkansas as place of performance, across nine 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 9 awards mean 9 Arkansas 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 Arkansas 93.778 overlay for named lines as USAspending stored them.

Is this Arkansas's entire federal health-coverage funding?

No. The join is CFDA 93.778, Medical Assistance Program (Medicaid), crossed with Arkansas place of performance. Medicare and CHIP use different CFDA numbers. Those dollars are not inside $24,314,367,629 unless the award also carries 93.778.

Is $24.3 billion already paid to Arkansas providers?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on assistance awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $24,314,367,629 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.
