Medicaid.gov

Today the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced that the report on Medicaid Expenditures for Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS) in federal fiscal year (FY) 2016 is now available.  Federal and state spending on Medicaid LTSS totaled approximately $167 billion in FY 2016, a 4.5 percent increase from $159 billion in FY 2015.
Home and community-based services (HCBS) have accounted for almost all Medicaid LTSS growth in recent years, while institutional expenditures have remained close to the FY 2010 amount. HCBS spending increased 10 percent in FY 2016, greater than the five percent average annual growth from FY 2011 through 2015. Institutional service spending decreased two percent in FY 2016 following an average annual increase of 0.3 percent over the previous five years. LTSS provided through managed care continued to grow as states have expanded the use of managed LTSS delivery systems. Managed LTSS expenditures were $39 billion in FY 2016, a 24 percent increase from $32 billion in FY 2015.
