This data set includes annual counts and percentages of Medicaid enrollees who are eligible for benefits based on disability, overall; by reason for qualification of disability benefits; and by four subpopulation topics: age group, dual eligibility status, race and ethnicity, and managed care participation. These results were generated using Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-MSIS) Analytic Files (TAF) Release 1 data and the Race/Ethnicity Imputation Companion File. This data set includes Medicaid enrollees in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands who were enrolled for at least one day in the calendar year, except where otherwise noted. Enrollees in Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands are not included. The Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) does not confer eligibility based on disability, so Medicaid expansion CHIP (M-CHIP) and separate CHIP (S-CHIP) enrollees are not included. Results shown for the race and ethnicity subpopulation topic exclude enrollees in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Results shown for the dual eligibility, race and ethnicity, and managed care participation subpopulation topics are restricted to working-age adults (ages 19 to 64) with comprehensive Medicaid benefits. Some rows in the data set have a value of "DS," which indicates that data were suppressed according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ Cell Suppression Policy for values between 1 and 10. This data set is based on the brief: "Medicaid enrollees who qualify for benefits based on disability in 2020." Enrollees are assigned to a disability category based on their latest reported eligibility group code and age in the calendar year. Enrollees are assigned to an age group subpopulation using age as of December 31st of the calendar year. Enrollees are assigned to a dual eligibility status subpopulation based on the dual eligibility code that applies to the majority of their enrolled-months during the year (Dual Eligibility Code). Enrollees are assigned to a race and ethnicity subpopulation using the state-reported race and ethnicity information in TAF when it is available and of good quality; if it is missing or unreliable, race and ethnicity is indirectly estimated using an enhanced version of Bayesian Improved Surname Geocoding (BISG) (Race and ethnicity of the national Medicaid and CHIP population in 2020). Enrollees are assigned to a managed care participation subpopulation based on the managed care plan type code that applies to the majority of their enrolled-months during the year (Enrollment in CMC Plans). Please refer to the full brief for additional context about the methodology and detailed findings. Future updates to this data set will include more recent data years as the TAF data become available.
