USAspending.gov records $217,400,664,269.63 in Department of Health and Human Services obligations under awarding agency 075 with place of performance in North Dakota, across 1,769 awards. Few rows, large dollars: the mean on this cell is the highest among the HHS state joins in this harvest. That ratio describes the aggregate, not the health of a low-population state. Obligations are commitments, not outlays. Dividing the dollar total by 1,769 awards yields about $122.9 million per award on average.
Key figures
- HHS agency 075 shows $217,400,664,269.63 in North Dakota place-of-performance obligations on 1,769 awards.
- Mean obligation is about $122.9 million per award, the most concentrated HHS mean in this slice.
- 1,769 records are not a census of North Dakota clinics.

- Figures are obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.
The 075 × ND cell
Awarding agency 075 and place-of-performance state ND define this tie. The $217,400,664,269.63 obligation total is the sum on records that hold both keys. North Dakota’s all-agency hub and HHS’s all-state hub are different tables. This page does not substitute for either.
One thousand seven hundred sixty-nine awards is the smallest HHS row count in this slice. The dollars still exceed $217 billion. Sparse rows plus a large sum is a bookkeeping pattern. It is not a finding that North Dakota “gets more than it should.”
North Dakota’s HHS cell is $217,400,664,269.63 on 1,769 awards. A low-population state can still show a large assistance aggregate if the instruments themselves are large. The packet does not include population, so this page does not compute per-capita spending or call the total large or small for the state’s size. Repeat the filter out loud: awarding agency 075, place-of-performance ND, $217,400,664,269.63, 1,769 awards. That sentence is the whole numeric claim. Per-capita language would require a population fact that the packet does not supply, so this page will not say North Dakota “gets a lot for its size.” Tribal health, state agencies, and research instruments can share code 075 without being named. The $122.9 million mean is an arithmetic flag that a few large assistance awards can dominate 1,769 rows. It is not a typical clinic budget. Minnesota- and Montana-tagged awards remain on those ties. Obligations remain commitments. The overlay, the North Dakota hub, the HHS hub, and All spending ties remain the exits.
HHS as awarding agency 075
The code is 075, labeled Department of Health and Human Services. USDA, Interior, and other agencies that also award in North Dakota use other codes. This $217,400,664,269.63 figure does not include them.
The agency 075 hub removes the North Dakota filter. Packet facts are the obligation sum, 1,769 awards, state ND, and the code. No tribal-health versus state-Medicaid split appears in those facts.
Tribal health, state Medicaid, and research grants can all sit in awarding agency 075. The facts do not split them. Treating $217,400,664,269.63 as a single program would be a misread of the cabinet code.
