Medicaid Spending Surge in Thomasville | Winston–Salem News

Medicaid spending in Thomasville exploded in 2024, with providers billing over $10,000 for services under “Temporary Codes”—a 71.2% jump from the prior year. Though this category ranked just 11th locally and 19th statewide, its growth was staggering: nearly $10,000 more over five years, a 1,100% surge. Most of it—every dollar—came from one ZIP code, fueled by pandemic-driven enrollment spikes. Meanwhile, looming federal budget cuts could slash Medicaid funding by over a trillion dollars nationwide, adding work requirements and threatening future access for millions.
