Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa requested a report from the Government Accountability Office, released today, called: "Medicaid/Demographics and Service Usage of Certain High-Expenditure Beneficiaries."  Grassley made the following comment on the report.  The report is available here.

"If Congress is going to look at changing Medicaid to make it sustainable for the people the program serves and for federal and state taxpayers, knowing where Medicaid spends money should be a high priority.  This work by the GAO should inform the conversation."
