Compared to other states, Texas compare to other states with regard to "public welfare" spending slightly below average.
Financial assistance is provided to people directly through programs like Medicaid, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Supplemental Security Income, and other payments. Payouts to medical professionals and other service providers are also included.
The Census does not have a specific category for Medicaid spending. Instead, the majority of Medicaid spending is categorized as being connected to the public good, with some spending also being categorized as hospital costs.
According to a recent investigation, Texas used $862 million in federal and state funding from a program for low-income families. However, only 6% of those monies were used for basic aid, which is what the program is all about.
