Medical Assistance Program federal funding in Virginia
The Medical Assistance Program (CFDA 93.778) shows $80,235,338,374 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Virginia, on 14 awards. Fourteen rows can still carry an eleven-figure 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.
Key figures
- CFDA 93.778 × Virginia records $80,235,338,374 in USAspending obligations.
- Only 14 awards sit under that sum; the mean is about $5,731,095,598 per record, not a typical claim.
- The join is not a Medicaid ranking and not proof Virginia caused the spending.
- Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.
Fourteen awards on the Virginia Medicaid catalog line
CFDA 93.778 is Medical Assistance Program. Virginia (VA) is the place-of-performance state. Their intersection is $80,235,338,374 and 14 records. A 93.778 award tagged to a neighboring state is not here. A Virginia SNAP, SSDI, or Medicare row is a different CFDA. This page does not add those programs to the Medicaid total.
14 awards against $80,235,338,374 yields a mean of about $5,731,095,598 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 14 rows.
Richmond did not “win” $80,235,338,374 by appearing as a geography code. HHS did not “choose Virginia” in a sense this extract can prove. Correlation of 93.778 with VA is not causation. The overlay Medical Assistance Program in Virginia is the live table.
Medical Assistance as a USAspending.gov catalog title
The official title is MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. SpendingVault does not grade Virginia’s Medicaid expansion status, its waiver inventory, or its managed-care model. $80,235,338,374 is an obligation sum, not a policy verdict. CFDA 93.778 is the national hub without the Virginia 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 14 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.
Virginia’s statewide book besides 93.778
Virginia federal spending covers every CFDA coded to the state. Virginia programs is the catalog directory. $80,235,338,374 is one cell. Quoting it as Virginia’s entire federal health book would drop retirement insurance, Medicare, and every other line that also hits the state.
Place-of-performance Virginia 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 $80,235,338,374.
Obligation versus FMAP draws
An obligation is a recorded commitment. An outlay is a payment. $80,235,338,374 is the commitment figure. Weekly funding requests and CMS-64 lines are payment-side stories. This page does not convert the 14 awards into those cash flows.
Richmond 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–Virginia join
Cite: Medical Assistance Program (CFDA 93.778) obligated $80,235,338,374 on 14 awards coded to Virginia, 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 14-award count. Prefer the overlay Medical Assistance Program in Virginia when the live table and this snapshot diverge.
What 14 rows will not be asked to prove
This page will not treat 14 awards as 14 regions, 14 health plans, or 14 hospitals. It will not compute a per-capita Medicaid figure because the packet has no population. It will not rank Virginia against other states on Medical Assistance. Peer totals are not in these facts.
Retirement insurance and Medicare remain outside $80,235,338,374 even though those programs also appear as Virginia joins. Virginia federal spending, Virginia programs, CFDA 93.778, and All spending ties are the parent hubs. None of them recasts this join as a grade of Virginia Medicaid or as an outlay.
The mean of about $5,731,095,598 per record will mislead anyone who treats it as a typical beneficiary year. There is no beneficiary count here. There is $80,235,338,374 and 14 awards. That is the entire numeric claim. Keep both the program name and Virginia in every citation sentence.
Virginia also appears on retirement insurance and Medicare catalog lines. Those are other joins. Adding any of them to $80,235,338,374 would manufacture a homemade “Virginia federal health” total that this packet does not publish. Keep Medical Assistance on its own 14-award line.
USAspending.gov award counts increment when a new award is recorded and when a modification is stored as its own line, depending on how the bulk file is rolled up. They do not increment when a Virginia resident enrolls in Medicaid. Treating 14 as an enrollment census would collapse two measurement systems. $80,235,338,374 stays an obligation sum on those rows. Keep the overlay Medical Assistance Program in Virginia as the live cell if later ingests move dollars or the 14-award count.
