A projection for 2020 was not given in this report, but it does state that "Medicaid is expected to grow about 8.3 percent per year on average", pointing to an estimate of 550 billion for 2020.

The report doesn't make any long-term assumptions, so I think it should use the 8.3% growth rate until it reaches 5.0% of GDP and then cap it.
