Federal obligations in administration of public health programs (NAICS 923120)

$675.7M in federal contract obligations is tagged to administration of public health programs, NAICS 923120, across 605 awards in USAspending.gov data indexed here. The public-administration code covers establishments that administer public-health programs—not practitioner offices, not medical laboratories, and not blood banks. Dollars are obligations, not outlays. Assistance awards may not carry NAICS, so public-health grants that never become contracts sit outside this total.

Administering programs, not treating patients, at $675.7M

NAICS 923120 is a government-administration title applied to 605 USAspending contract awards totaling $675.7M in obligations. The tag is program administration, not a clinic census and not a count of doses delivered. This page does not offer medical advice.

Offices of all other miscellaneous health practitioners (621399), medical laboratories (621511), and blood and organ banks (621991) are 62-sector health codes. International affairs (928120) is a different 92-sector administration class. $675.7M follows the 923120 tag. Packet facts are the dollar total and the 605 count.

605 awards and a large-vehicle average

Six hundred five awards against $675.7M averages about $1.1M per action. That size fits multi-year administration vehicles better than a single technical-assistance invoice. Task orders still increment 605, so the count is not unique vendors and not unique programs.

With 605 actions carrying $675.7M, concentration is expected. Amount sort on the industry hub shows whether a few large rows dominate. Treat $1.1M as a divider, not a typical task order.

605 awards under $675.7M is a concentrated administration file. It will not match a CDC or HHS grant total, because those assistance awards may not carry NAICS. Practitioner and lab pages answer care-side tagging. This overlay stays on the 923120 contract pair.

Contract obligations versus health grants

Public-health spending often travels as assistance. Those grants may not carry NAICS, so $675.7M understates any broader program outlays that live on program pages. On the contract side, $675.7M is committed value on 605 tagged actions, not cash already paid for every administrative month. Outlays remain a separate field.
