Medicaid is one of the most complex items in state budgets – accounting for a large share of state spending, but also the largest source of federal revenues. Conversations with state budget managers about fiscal risks usually start and end with Medicaid. And in the current economic and public health environment, Medicaid’s importance has become magnified. Hear experts on state budgets and Medicaid discuss topics such as what the state budget picture looks like right now and how Medicaid fits into that picture; what a downturn typically means for Medicaid in state budgets and whether this time will be different; what the enhanced federal match means and what else might be coming.
