Rural Health Research Centers — CFDA 93.155

Rural health-research obligations at $596.7M

USAspending.gov records $596,745,324.12 in obligations under CFDA 93.155. Four hundred awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $1.49 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical research-center invoice and not a cost per study.

The assistance-listing title is RURAL HEALTH RESEARCH CENTERS. CFDA 93.155 is the identifier. Other HRSA rural-health, FORHP, or hospital listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $596.7M. Combining those codes would invent a combined rural-health total this packet does not contain.

364 recipients on 400 award rows

Three hundred sixty-four recipients share 400 awards, or about 1.10 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $596,745,324.12 evenly would assign about $1.64 million per recipient. That density is a dispersed-grantee fingerprint: almost one assistance row per named organization across 48 states. The packet does not list the 364. Recipient count is the organizational headcount on the federal extract, not a census of rural hospitals or researchers.

Forty-eight states in the geographic count is a near-complete map. Research dollars follow grantee geography as coded, not equal shares. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award rows are not a hospital census

Among HHS rural-health listings, 93.155 is a high-headcount research file: 400 awards against 364 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of research centers” and a worse proxy for papers or hospitals. Recipients (364) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (400) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report publications, CAHs, or workforce shortages. Citing 400 as rural hospitals would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, states. Four hundred awards at about $1.49 million each is dispersed-research architecture, not a hospital-construction book.

Obligations versus rural-research outlays

The $596.7M is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Rural Health Research Centers awards — are not in the packet. A research file can show a large obligation stock while draws follow a later calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

Use CFDA 93.155 to size this Rural Health Research Centers listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a Flex, SHIP, or rural-clinic construction dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 93.155.

What the 93.155 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a publications index, not a hospital directory, and not a shortage-area map. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $596,745,324.12. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 400 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 48 states is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to centers.

Rural Health Research Centers’ 48-state map and 364-recipient headcount together describe a dispersed research book, not a rural-clinic construction ledger. A researcher comparing 93.155 with Flex or SHIP codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. The $596.7M stock is the USAspending obligation book for this listing only.

Where the 93.155 table lives

The program page overlays these four facts. The all-programs index ranks 93.155 among other assistance listings. Agency pages show awarding-agency rollups that may include this CFDA among other HHS listings. For 93.155 only, start on the program page.

CFDA 93.155’s 400 awards spread $596,745,324.12 across 364 recipients and 48 states. Quote award count as a record count, recipient count as the organizational headcount, and dollars as obligations from USAspending.gov. About 1.10 award records per recipient is the density story on this listing. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards.

Papers, CAHs, and workforce shortages live in other HRSA series. Those rows are outside $596,745,324.12 unless they share CFDA 93.155. Quote 400 as assistance records, 364 as organizational payees, and 48 as the geographic count.

Questions

How much is obligated for Rural Health Research Centers?

USAspending.gov records $596.7M in obligations for CFDA 93.155. SpendingVault indexes 400 awards, 364 recipients, and 48 states. The figure is an obligation sum from assistance awards, not an outlay and not a hospital count. CFDA 93.155’s $596,745,324.12 is the USAspending obligation stock.
