Total Medicaid Population

Region: MiHIA
Measurement Period: 2022
This indicator shows the total combined enrollment to Medicaid and the Healthy Michigan Plan.

Why is this important?

Medicaid is a federal and state program that provides health coverage for persons of all ages with limited income and resources. It is a program funded by federal and state governments but managed by the state. State governments have broad leeway to determine the eligibility of their recipients. Medicaid covers benefits normally covered by Medicare, such as hospitalizations and physicians visits, but also covers other expenditures such as nursing home care and personal care services. Understanding the population demographics provides valuable insight, which can help researchers and policymakers better understand Medicaid recipients.
