Program Information for Medicaid and CHIP Beneficiaries by Year

Published by Office of Communications (OC) | U.S. Department of Health & Human Services | Catalog Last Checked: September 28, 2026 at 07:58 PM | Dataset Last Updated: January 05, 2024 at 04:47 PM
This data set presents annual enrollment counts of Medicaid and CHIP beneficiaries by program type (Medicaid or CHIP). There are three metrics presented: (1) the number of beneficiaries ever enrolled in each program type over the year (duplicated count); (2) the number of beneficiaries enrolled in each program type as of an individual’s last month of enrollment (unduplicated count); and (3) average monthly enrollment in each program type. These metrics are based on data in the T-MSIS Analytic Files (TAF). Some states have serious data quality issues, making the data unusable for calculating these measures. To assess data quality, analysts used measures featured in the DQ Atlas. Data for a state and year are considered unusable or of high concern based on DQ Atlas thresholds for the topics Medicaid-only enrollment and M-CHIP and S-CHIP Enrollment. Please refer to the DQ Atlas at http://medicaid.gov/dq-atlas for more information about data quality assessment methods. Some cells have a value of “DS”. This indicates that data were suppressed for confidentiality reasons because the group included fewer than 11 beneficiaries.
