USAspending.gov records $11,511,970,924.87 in Department of Veterans Affairs obligations under awarding agency 036 with place of performance in Oklahoma, across 25,020 awards. Oklahoma’s VA cell is a mid-file case in this slice: 25,020 awards against a $11.51 billion obligation sum. That arithmetic sits between thin Energy-style books and the thickest USDA action files.

What the VA–Oklahoma join is
Awarding agency 036 and place-of-performance state OK meet here. $11,511,970,924.87 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Veterans Affairs’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Oklahoma, and not an outlay register. Veterans medical care, benefits, construction, and related instruments can all sit under awarding agency 036. The packet does not split VBA, VHA, or NCA. 25,020 is a substantial action file: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished.
Dividing $11,511,970,924.87 by 25,020 yields about $460,111 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line, and it is not a VA hospital census, not a veteran headcount, and not a claims-backlog score. A second VA slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Oklahoma’s 036 cell as a synonym for every VA account.
Open Department of Veterans Affairs in Oklahoma for the live filtered table, Oklahoma federal spending for every awarding agency in the state extract, Department of Veterans Affairs for agency 036 without a Oklahoma filter, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $11,511,970,924.87.
