Cardiovascular Diseases Research in Tennessee

Tennessee x 93.837 is a research join, not a cardiology-care ledger

This page pairs CFDA 93.837, CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES RESEARCH, with Tennessee place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $605,496,126.84 on 275 awards. Research listings fund scientific projects as assistance awards. They do not, in this extract, pay clinical claims or count hospitalizations. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a quality score of Tennessee cardiology. Wisconsin, Colorado, and Missouri 93.837 joins in this slice are sibling totals, not a league table of which state's science is stronger.

Tennessee also appears here on VA DIC (64.110) and Post-9/11 education (64.028). Those VA listings are different overlays. Mixing $605,496,126.84 with VA benefit totals would invent a combined health figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and mortality rates is not causation. Mortality rates are not in the packet. Place of performance as Tennessee locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $605,496,126.84 in the state treasury.

275 research awards, not 275 Tennessee hospitals

Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible renewals and supplements. It is not a census of labs, investigators, or papers. Mean obligation is about $2.20 million if $605,496,126.84 were divided evenly across 275 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a typical R01 size. Two hundred seventy-five is a thicker research file than Wisconsin's 236 on the same listing; that describes row volume, not impact.

Sort the Tennessee 93.837 overlay by amount to see concentration. This page will not invent university names. Open Cardiovascular Diseases Research in Tennessee for the stored table. Do not convert 275 into a map of Tennessee hospitals. The $605,496,126.84 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines rather than inferring bedside care from the CFDA title.

Questions

How much cardiovascular diseases research funding is obligated in Tennessee?

USAspending.gov shows $605,496,126.84 in obligations for CFDA 93.837 with Tennessee as place of performance, across 275 awards. The sum is a commitment total on assistance awards, not outlays and not Tennessee's full health budget. Other NIH listings are outside this join unless they also carry 93.837.

Does this pay for heart-disease treatment in Tennessee?

Not on this listing. CFDA 93.837 is a research assistance catalog line, not a claims file. The extract reports $605,496,126.84 on 275 awards tagged to Tennessee place of performance. Clinical care, Medicare, and Medicaid sit on other codes. Patient counts are not in the packet.

Do 275 awards mean 275 Tennessee laboratories?

No. Award count is a row count of assistance awards and can include renewals and supplements. It is not a lab or investigator census. The packet does not name institutions. See the Tennessee 93.837 overlay for named lines as USAspending stored them.

Is $605 million already spent on Tennessee heart research?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on assistance awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $605,496,126.84 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Draw timing and remaining balances are not published in this packet.
