NOTES: State estimates may not sum to national total due to rounding. Estimates based on the 6.2 percentage point increase in the Families First Coronavirus Response Act. Dates assume when the FMAP increase ends, so assumes the public emergency ends in the prior quarter. Estimates include only the effects on Medicaid and do not include the effect of the increase on CHIP.
