Medical Assistance Program federal funding in Rhode Island
The Medical Assistance Program (CFDA 93.778) shows $9,053,248,417 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Rhode Island, on 11 awards. Eleven rows can still carry a large Medicaid book when the award file stores large federal-to-state vehicles. This page is a catalog-program × state join, not an enrollment census and not an outlay conversion. USAspending.gov is the source table.

- Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.
Eleven awards on the Rhode Island Medicaid catalog line
CFDA 93.778 is Medical Assistance Program. Rhode Island (RI) is the place-of-performance state. Their intersection is $9,053,248,417 and 11 records. A 93.778 award tagged to Massachusetts or Connecticut is not here. A Rhode Island SNAP, SSDI, or Medicare row is a different CFDA. This page does not add those programs to the Medicaid total.
11 awards against $9,053,248,417 yields a mean of about $823,022,583.36 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 11 rows.
Providence did not “win” $9,053,248,417 by appearing as a geography code. HHS did not “choose Rhode Island” in a sense this extract can prove. Correlation of 93.778 with RI is not causation. The overlay Medical Assistance Program in Rhode Island is the live table.
Medical Assistance as a USAspending.gov catalog title
The official title is MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. SpendingVault does not grade Rhode Island’s Medicaid expansion status, its waiver inventory, or its managed-care model. $9,053,248,417 is an obligation sum, not a policy verdict. CFDA 93.778 is the national hub without the Rhode Island filter. This packet has no national Medicaid total, so none is quoted.
CMS-64 expenditure reports, T-MSIS enrollment files, and state Medicaid dashboards are other series. They are not the 11 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.
Rhode Island’s statewide book besides 93.778
Rhode Island federal spending covers every CFDA coded to the state. Rhode Island programs is the catalog directory. $9,053,248,417 is one cell. Quoting it as Rhode Island’s entire federal health book would drop retirement insurance, Medicare, and every other line that also hits the state.
Place-of-performance Rhode Island on a Medicaid vehicle is often a state agency address. It is not a map of where beneficiaries live. This packet has no county, no Medicaid region, and no managed-care-plan split of the $9,053,248,417.
Obligation versus FMAP draws
An obligation is a recorded commitment. An outlay is a payment. $9,053,248,417 is the commitment figure. Weekly funding requests and CMS-64 lines are payment-side stories. This page does not convert the 11 awards into those cash flows.
Providence budget documents and the state Medicaid agency appropriations answer other questions. They are not the source of this USAspending.gov cell. Keep the citation on CFDA aggregates by place of performance state.
How to cite the 93.778–Rhode Island join
Cite: Medical Assistance Program (CFDA 93.778) obligated $9,053,248,417 on 11 awards coded to Rhode Island, per USAspending.gov. Keep both keys. Keep “obligations.” Do not invent a fiscal year. All spending ties stores this pair with other program-by-state pages.
Later bulk files can move the dollars and the 11-award count. Prefer the overlay Medical Assistance Program in Rhode Island when the live table and this snapshot diverge.
What 11 rows will not be asked to prove
This page will not treat 11 awards as 11 hospitals or 11 managed-care plans. It will not compute a per-enrollee figure because the packet has no enrollment census. It will not rank Rhode Island against other states on 93.778. Peer totals are other packets.
SNAP, SSDI, and Medicare remain outside $9,053,248,417. Rhode Island federal spending, Rhode Island programs, CFDA 93.778, and All spending ties are the parent hubs. None of them recasts this join as a grade of Rhode Island’s Medicaid program or as an outlay.
The mean of about $823.02 million per record is a quotient on a short formula-style list, not a typical beneficiary year. Keep both Medical Assistance Program and Rhode Island in every citation sentence. Treat this JSON as a packet snapshot. A state agency vehicle tagged to Rhode Island can carry nearly the entire book.
Place-of-performance is a coding field, not a residence map. If a later ingest disagrees, the overlay wins. Do not freeze $9,053,248,417 as a permanent CMS press total. Keep USAspending.gov as the cited source and keep the obligation label. Waiver debates, FMAP percentages, and hospital-assessment stories are absent from the packet and will not be used to explain the cell.
Rhode Island’s small geography does not make 11 awards a complete map of providers. Formula-style federal-to-state Medicaid vehicles often post as a handful of rows regardless of state size. This extract cannot split FMAP from state match. It only reports 11 awards and $9,053,248,417. Rhode Island federal spending and Rhode Island programs remain the parent directory. Keep both keys in the citation.
Questions
- How much Medical Assistance is obligated in Rhode Island?
- USAspending.gov records $9,053,248,417 in CFDA 93.778 obligations across 11 awards coded to Rhode Island. That is a program × state join, not an outlay and not Rhode Island’s full federal total. Other HHS catalog lines sit on separate pages.
- Do 11 awards mean 11 Rhode Island Medicaid plans?
- No. It is an award-row count. $9,053,248,417 ÷ 11 is about $823.02 million per record as a mean, not a typical enrollee year or provider claim. Federal Medicaid funding is often booked as a handful of large assistance actions. This packet does not name recipients.
- Does this include Medicare or SNAP in Rhode Island?
- No. The cell is CFDA 93.778 only. Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage and SNAP are separate joins. The $9,053,248,417 does not swallow those programs. Mixing siblings would invent a combined health-and-nutrition total the packet never computed.
- Where is the live overlay?
- Medical Assistance Program in Rhode Island is the overlay. See Rhode Island federal spending, Rhode Island programs, CFDA 93.778, and All spending ties. Later ingests override this snapshot. Keep both Medical Assistance Program and Rhode Island in the citation.
