This varies among the States. Each State has one agency with overall responsibility, but the various Medicaid programs are often operated by more than one agency.
All 50 States have Medicaid, although coverage varies.
Each state in the United States runs it's own Medicaid program which must be approved under the federal agency Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Providers are doctors and medical groups rather than agencies. They apply with Medicaid to become a provider.
Medicaid is administered jointly by federal and state governments. State participation in Medicaid is voluntary, and all states have chosen to offer Medicaid coverage to their residents
Medicaid is administered by the States; therefore, expenditures will vary by state.
