Beneficiaries Dually Eligible for Medicare and Medicaid: This is a data book that is an updated, joint initiative of MACPAC and MedPAC, which advise Congress on Medicaid and Medicare respectively. It looks especially at the high-risk, high-cost population that are eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid.
Here are two resources that help you understand the arcane terms you will come across trying to understand federal budgeting and spending, including health care programs. (Example outlays, “PAY-GO”, mandatory versus discretionary spending). One is a glossaryfrom the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). The other is a plain English guide to the federal budget from the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities.
