This KFF brief analyzes Medicaid enrollment and spending trends for FY 2025 and FY 2026, based on data provided by state Medicaid directors as part of the 25th annual survey of Medicaid directors. 48 states (including the District of Columbia) responded to the 2025 survey, although response rates for specific questions varied. Most officials indicated that their spending projections reflect what is assumed in their states’ adopted budgets and do not account for the recently passed reconciliation law. Key survey findings include Medicaid enrollment declining by 7.6% in FY 2025, driven primarily by the unwinding of the continuous enrollment provision.
