Recent budget measures from the Trump administration have featured proposals for significant federal Medicaid reductions and changes to the program’s structure. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” enacted in 2025, is projected to decrease federal Medicaid outlays by more than $1 trillion over 10 years, incorporating work requirements and higher cost-sharing that may lower benefits and spending for certain recipients. Resulting policies are anticipated to transfer additional costs to states and curb the pace of federal Medicaid support, even as enrollment remains high.
