Medicare-Medicaid Enrollee State Profiles

Overview

Today there are over 12.2 million Medicare-Medicaid enrollees in the United States.To provide a greater understanding of the Medicare-Medicaid enrollee population, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has put together State profiles that examine the demographic characteristics, utilization, condition prevalence, and spending patterns of Medicare-Medicaid enrollees and the programs that serve them in each State.

Please note that the 2008, 2009, and 2011 State and National Profiles employed different data source and methodology for identifying Medicare-Medicaid enrollees than did the 2007 Profiles. For this reason, there may be slight variation in the results presented in 2007 versus 2008, 2009, and 2011. The 2008, 2009 and 2011 Reports take advantage of the Medicare Modernization Act (MMA) monthly operational data on Medicare-enrollment that State Medicaid agencies submit to CMS almost contemporaneously. This change in data sources was the result of our evolving understanding regarding the most accurate way of identifying Medicare-Medicaid dual enrollees across our various administrative data source options.

For more information on defining Medicare-Medicaid enrollees via the MMA files please review Defining Medicare-Medicaid Enrollees in CMS Data Sources (PDF).
