USAspending.gov records $137,624,784,112.94 in Department of Health and Human Services obligations under awarding agency 075 with place of performance in Maryland, across 27,250 awards. That is the thickest HHS award file in this harvest: more than 27,000 records under a dollar total that is not the largest. The mean falls to about $5.05 million. Campus and intramural geography may sit in the raw file; the packet does not name campuses, so this page does not either. Obligations are commitments, not outlays.

A high-row HHS × Maryland cell
Awarding agency 075 plus place-of-performance Maryland define the join. The $137,624,784,112.94 obligation total is the sum on 27,250 award records that carry both keys. Maryland’s all-agency hub and HHS’s all-state hub remain the two parents.
Twenty-seven thousand two hundred fifty awards is an outlier row count among HHS state cells here. More records under $137.6 billion produce the lowest HHS mean in the slice. That is a file-shape fact. It is not a ranking of Maryland’s public health.
Maryland’s HHS cell is $137,624,784,112.94 on 27,250 awards. The thick file is the distinctive fact. It is compatible with many research instruments, many assistance actions, or both. The packet does not say which. Maryland HHS is $137,624,784,112.94 on 27,250 awards, the thickest HHS file in this harvest and the lowest HHS mean (about $5.05 million). Thickness is not a Bethesda campus list. NIH, CMS, and other operating divisions can all land in 075 without being named. DC- and Virginia-tagged awards stay on those ties even when the lab sits a few miles from the District line. Twenty-seven thousand two hundred fifty records are not 27,250 unique investigators. Related instruments can share the aggregate. Obligations are not outlays. Use the Maryland hub for all-agency context.
Agency 075 without assuming NIH-only
Code 075 is the full Department of Health and Human Services in this aggregate. NIH, CMS, CDC, and other operating divisions can all land in 075. The packet does not split them. Calling the $137,624,784,112.94 total “NIH spending in Maryland” would over-specify facts that are not present.
The national 075 hub drops the Maryland filter. Facts on this page: obligation sum, 27,250 awards, state MD, code 075. No Bethesda-versus-Baltimore table is supplied.
Montgomery County, Baltimore, and the Eastern Shore share one MD tag. The join does not isolate Bethesda. Awards tagged DC or VA stay on those ties even when the lab is a few miles from the District line.
