NAICS 622110 general medical and surgical hospital obligations

Hospital NAICS on contract awards

NAICS 622110 is general medical and surgical hospitals. Contracting officers assign it when the principal purpose of a contract is hospital services in that Census class. Medicare fee-for-service claims, Medicaid matching, and many other health-assistance flows are not this contract tag. The $7,325,045,776.79 on this hub is USAspending contract awards coded 622110, not national hospital expenditure.

Ten thousand four hundred sixty-four awards produced a mean of about $699,832. That average can mix purchased-care episodes, service contracts with hospital systems, and other tagged actions. The packet does not count beds, admissions, or procedures. Those operational measures are outside the industry aggregate.

This page reports public spending tags. It does not evaluate quality of care, recommend hospitals, or interpret outcomes. The only numbers in scope are the obligation total and the award count.

Health NAICS codes split hospital services, manufacturing, and wholesale. General medical and surgical hospitals (622110) are the hospital-services tag at $7,325,045,776.79 on 10,464 awards, about $699,832 per award. That is not Medicare claims, not medicinal manufacturing (325411), and not medical wholesale (423450). It is tagged hospital-industry contracts in USAspending.

Health-care obligations versus claims paid

A hospital contract can obligate estimated care and pay as claims or invoices arrive. Outlays can trail the $7.3 billion on open vehicles. Treating the headline as care already delivered and paid would overstate cash.

The 10,464-award count is not a patient count. Multiple encounters can sit inside one award. Dividing dollars by awards is not a cost per admission.

Nearby health-industry codes

Medicinal manufacturing (325411) and surgical instrument manufacturing (339112) measure goods. Medical equipment merchant wholesalers (423450) measure distribution. Those hubs are not hospital-service dollars and are not inside $7,325,045,776.79.

Assistance awards to hospitals often lack NAICS and do not enter this industry total even when the recipient is a hospital.

Assistance awards to hospitals — including many grants that never receive a NAICS code — sit outside $7,325,045,776.79. Entitlement claims flows are also outside this contract-industry hub. The page reports public spending tags and does not rank clinical quality.
