NHSC loan-repayment obligations at $763,747,960
USAspending.gov records $763,747,960 in obligations under CFDA 93.162. Eight thousand six hundred eighty-four awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $87,948 per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical clinician’s remaining principal and not a cost per site-year. Other Health Resources and Services Administration workforce listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $763,747,960.
The assistance-listing title is NATIONAL HEALTH SERVICE CORPS LOAN REPAYMENT. CFDA 93.162 is the identifier. Combining 93.162 with NHSC Scholarship or Nurse Corps codes would invent a combined clinician-workforce total this packet does not contain. Read the $763,747,960 as the obligation book tagged 93.162 only.
8,684 awards and a 0-recipient headcount
Zero recipients share 8,684 awards on this extract. That is not a missing-dollar result. Loan-repayment assistance is often stored as individual award rows without an organizational recipient identifier that rolls up in the USAspending recipient count used here. The packet does not name clinicians. Do not treat 0 recipients as 0 spending.
Fifty-six jurisdictions in the geographic count cover states plus territories and other coded entities. NHSC dollars follow shortage-area service sites, not equal shares. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table. Award count is a record count, not a census of HPSAs or FQHCs.
Award rows are not a clinician census
Among HHS listings, 93.162 is a high-row individual file: 8,684 awards against 0 organizational recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of NHSC clinicians” and a worse proxy for patients seen. Awards (8,684) tell you how many assistance rows were stored; the 0-recipient field tells you the organizational headcount on this extract is empty.
The packet does not report HPSA scores, specialty mix, or years of service. Citing 8,684 as clinicians would be a unit error if some people hold more than one award row. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $763,747,960 stock is the obligation figure from USAspending.gov.
Obligations versus loan-repayment outlays
The $763,747,960 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against National Health Service Corps Loan Repayment awards — are not in the packet. A loan-repayment file can show a large obligation stock while servicers disburse against verified service periods. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

What the 93.162 tables omit
The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a clinician roster, not a HPSA map, and not a student-loan balance file. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $763,747,960. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 8,684 award rows.
A 0-recipient organizational count is a coding result on this extract, not a claim that no people were paid. Read the program page before treating empty recipient cells as empty spending. Place-of-performance on 56 jurisdictions is still a coding field, not equal shares of NHSC funding.
