HHS versus SSA inside Illinois
Awarding agency 075 and place-of-performance IL produce this cell. The $131,198,580,430.51 obligation total is the HHS overlap only. The Illinois SSA cell in this harvest is a separate join with 28,253 awards. Do not add the two totals and call the sum “health and retirement spending”; USAspending already stores them apart.
Eight thousand three hundred fifty-three HHS awards is a mid-thick file. It is not a hospital census and not a count of Medicaid enrollees.
Illinois’s HHS cell is $131,198,580,430.51 on 8,353 awards. Place it next to Illinois SSA ($135.6 billion on 28,253 awards) and the file-shape contrast is obvious: similar dollars, very different row counts, different cabinets. Illinois HHS is $131,198,580,430.51 on 8,353 awards. Place it beside Illinois SSA and you see similar dollars with far fewer HHS rows and a higher HHS mean (about $15.7 million). That contrast is the reason this site publishes ties instead of one blended “Illinois social spending” number. Chicago HQ does not pull other states’ place-of-performance tags into IL. VA and USDA, if present, use other codes. The overlay, the Illinois hub, the HHS hub, and All spending ties remain the four links. Obligations are not outlays.
Awarding agency 075 in Illinois
Code 075 is Department of Health and Human Services. Veterans Affairs and Defense medical awards, if present in Illinois, use other codes. Those dollars are outside $131,198,580,430.51.
The national 075 hub drops the Illinois filter. Packet facts: obligation sum, 8,353 awards, state IL, code 075. No operating-division split is supplied.
Chicago-area hospital systems can receive awards tagged to other states, and out-of-state systems can have IL-tagged performance. The $131,198,580,430.51 total follows the geography field, not HQ. Restating the pair does not blend Illinois SSA into HHS. Awarding agency 075 and place-of-performance IL produced $131,198,580,430.51 across 8,353 awards. Similar dollars to Illinois SSA on far fewer rows is why the HHS mean is about $15.7 million. Chicago HQ does not recode other states’ geography tags. Obligations remain commitments, not outlays.
