The Long-Term Outlook for Health Care Spending

U.S. Congressional Budget Office.
Available online.
"This study presents the agency’s [CBO's] projections of federal spending on Medicare and Medicaid and national spending on health care over the next 75 years. The goal of the projections is to examine the implications of a continuation of current federal law, rather than to make a prediction of the future. In reality, federal law will change; nevertheless, the projections provide a useful measure of the scope of the problem facing the nation under current law."
