Total Medicaid spending in Mississippi increased by $2.6 billion between 2004 and 2016. That represents 37% of the growth in total state spending. General fund Medicaid spending increased by $666 million (I didn't make that up) during this period. That represents 30% of the growth in general fund spending.
