Medical Assistance Program (CFDA 93.778) shows $25,219,888,258 in USAspending.gov obligations with South Carolina as place of performance. Eleven awards sit behind that total. The join is a HHS / CMS medical-assistance listing crossed with a state location field, not the state's entire health budget and not a census of enrollees, hospitals, or claims. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.

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.
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 $25,219,888,258 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, South Carolina 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, eleven awards, CFDA 93.778, and South Carolina. This page will not invent a share. Medicare Hospital Insurance and CHIP sit on different CFDA numbers.
What the South Carolina 93.778 table omits
The extract has no enrollee count, no claim table, and no provider roster. Facts remain $25,219,888,258, eleven awards, CFDA 93.778, and South Carolina. This page will not invent a ranking against other states' 93.778 joins. Medicare and CHIP are different listings, not subsets of 93.778.
South Carolina federal spending and South Carolina 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 $25,219,888,258 figure is the tagged pair only. Eleven awards remain formula-style state-agency rows, not a census of enrollees, hospitals, or claims.
Where the 93.778 x South Carolina overlay lives
Start with Medical Assistance Program in South Carolina for the eleven-award table behind $25,219,888,258. CFDA 93.778 is the nationwide listing. South Carolina federal spending and South Carolina programs give state context. All spending ties is the shelf for other program-by-state joins on the same obligation metric. Eleven awards totaling $25,219,888,258 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 South Carolina budget share.
How to read the South Carolina × 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 South Carolina. The headline $25,219,888,258 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 South Carolina's economy to grow, or that South Carolina 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 $25,219,888,258 into a per-year run rate: no fiscal year is in the facts. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join.
