Description
]
As of November 30, 2001, the state legislature had not completed its FY2002 budget bill; therefore, investment in tobacco control figures were not available for this report. Massachusetts spent $450 per capita on smoking-attributable direct medical expenditures. In 1998, about 14% ($817,000,000 or $899.73 per recipient) of all Medicaid expenditures were spent on smoking-related illnesses and diseases.
