CMS reported enrollment

CMS reporting years in this file run from 2016 through 2024. Retrieved 2026-11-01. The latest reporting year is 2024, which is behind the retrieval date. Enrollment figures are the CMS cell for that reporting year. Share is calculated from CMS reported total enrollment for that state, program, and year. Precapture does not combine rows. A year missing from a trend was not reported. A plan and region with more than one CMS row in a year has no trend and no year-over-year change. The dataset says a reported 0 may not truly represent 0 when a state suppressed a small count. CMS reported.
