- Abstract:
- As governors released their proposed budgets for FY 2013 the economic picture was mixed. On one hand, many states were still experiencing the ongoing effects of the Great Recession with high unemployment, revenues below peak levels from before the recession and continued high demand for public programs like Medicaid. On the other hand, the national unemployment rate hit a three-year low in January, revenues are slowly rebounding and spending and enrollment growth for Medicaid are slowing. Governors' proposed budgets reflect variation in economic conditions as well as policy priorities across states. This report provides Medicaid highlights from governors' proposed budgets for FY 2013, which starts July 1, 2012 for most states.
