CBO's baseline projects Medicaid outlays growing ~4.6% annually (2025-2035, $656B to $1,025B) due to per-enrollee costs rising from healthcare inflation (exceeding CPI), aging population boosting long-term care demand, enrollment increases (84M in 2025), and costly drugs like GLP-1s. H.R.1's CPI+1% cap (~3-4%) falls short, causing projected shortfalls and cuts.
