NOTE: Medicare and Medicaid were enacted in 1965; by January 1970, all states but two were participating in Medicaid. Starting with 2009 NHE data, CMS
revised the “Source of Funds” measure from a classification that was either public or private to one that is more program-based. CMS’s rational was that
“financing arrangements have become more complex and the lines between public and private payers have become blurred as a single program may have
federal, state, local, and private funding.” As a result, the category “Other Third Party Payers” includes both public and private programs and also some
programs that receive funds from both public and private sources, such as Workers’ Compensation, Worksite Health Care, and School Health. “Other Pub. Ins.
Programs” includes CHIP, the Department of Defense, and the Department of Veterans Affairs.
