MassHealth is jointly funded through a combination of federal and state revenues, utilizing tax dollars collected by both the United States federal government and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Under the federal Medicaid matching framework (known as the Federal Medical Assistance Percentage or FMAP), the federal government covers a substantial portion of program costs, while the remaining balance is financed directly through Massachusetts state taxes, legislative appropriations, and specific provider assessments or specialized revenue streams.
