Medicaid is a government health insurance program operated by states with finances provided jointly by the federal and state governments. It offers coverage for low-income groups, the elderly, children, and individuals with disabilities, making it a substantial portion of the U.S. health care landscape.
Because Medicaid payments are financed through tax dollars, trends in billing at the local level reveal how community-generated health funds are spent.
The “Radiology Procedures” section consists of grouped Medicaid billing codes, categorized by care type using standardized HCPCS and CPT code ranges. In compiling this data, each billing code was assigned to a single service group using uniform code prefixes and number ranges, ensuring that related services were assessed collectively without overlap, which preserved meaningful category rankings over time.
Though Medicaid spending rose in several service groups, Radiology Procedures was the third-largest by total Medicaid payments in Washington Court House for 2024.
Radiology Procedures was ranked as the sixth-largest Medicaid payment category statewide in Ohio during 2024.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services report that combined state and federal Medicaid expenditures totaled about $871.7 billion in fiscal year 2023, representing roughly 18% of overall U.S. health spending—up from around $613.5 billion in 2019, prior to the pandemic.
This represents an increase of approximately 40% in a few years, largely due to heightened enrollment and utilization throughout and following the COVID-19 pandemic.
Recent federal budget measures enacted during the Trump administration have featured major efforts to cut federal Medicaid funding and change the program’s structure. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” signed into law in 2025, is projected to reduce federal Medicaid outlays by over $1 trillion over the next decade. The legislation includes provisions such as work requirements and greater cost-sharing, potentially lowering coverage and funding for certain beneficiaries. These reforms are anticipated to transfer more responsibility to states and slow federal Medicaid funding growth, even as the program remains vital for tens of millions of citizens.
