Department of Health and Human Services in Iowa

HHS in Iowa beside SSA in Iowa

This page is 075 × IA. $29,833,436,543.36 is the HHS obligation sum. 2,328 is the HHS award count. Social Security Administration in Iowa is 028. Sharing a state code is not sharing a ledger. Adding the two totals would invent a figure the packet does not publish.

About $12.81 million per award follows from a thin HHS file. The mean is not a typical research grant and not a typical benefit.

2,328 award records and $29,833,436,543.36 are the only two published facts that define this pair. Subtracting either key changes the number. The mean is arithmetic on those two facts. Readers who need a distribution have to leave this narrative for the overlay table.

Agency 075 as a rollup code

Department of Health and Human Services is the label on 075. This page does not split operating divisions. The agency hub without Iowa will not equal $29,833,436,543.36. Overlay /states/ia/agencies/075/ is the both-keys table for 2,328 awards.

If a citation of $29,833,436,543.36 does not mention both the awarding agency and the place-of-performance state, it is not citing this join. If a citation of 2,328 does not mention both keys, it is not this file’s count.

Questions

How much has HHS obligated in Iowa?

USAspending records $29,833,436,543.36 in obligations for agency 075 with Iowa place of performance, on 2,328 awards. That is the HHS–Iowa join only. The pair is awarding agency 075 (Department of Health and Human Services) and place-of-performance Iowa. It is not Department of Health and Human Services nationwide and not Iowa from every awarding agency.

Is SSA in Iowa included?

No. Social Security Administration is a different awarding-agency overlay. This page is Department of Health and Human Services 075: $29,833,436,543.36 on 2,328 awards. Only place-of-performance Iowa plus awarding agency 075 (Department of Health and Human Services) enter $29,833,436,543.36. Adjacent state codes are other filters, if they exist as ties at all.

What is the average award?

About $12.81 million ($29,833,436,543.36 ÷ 2,328). A thin file raises the mean. The mean is not a typical grant. That ratio uses only $29,833,436,543.36 and 2,328 from the packet. A mean hides mix: a few large instruments can sit beside many smaller ones.

Are these outlays?

No. The aggregate is obligations. The 2,328 figure is an award-record count. USAspending’s source note for this aggregate is that obligations are not outlays. Place of performance Iowa is a geography tag, not a roster of residents, vendors, or named facilities.
