Children's Health Insurance Program obligations in Massachusetts

CHIP meeting Massachusetts geography

CFDA 93.767 (CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM) plus Massachusetts place of performance sums to $2,694,337,242 on 4 awards. The national CHIP hub includes every state. The Massachusetts spending hub includes every program. This tie is the intersection.

Four awards is a concentrated matching-fund pattern. CHIP dollars often post as a few large assistance awards to a state agency. The join does not report MassHealth child enrollment, eligibility rules, or county maps. Packet facts are $2,694,337,242, 4 awards, MA, and 93.767.

Readers sometimes treat a large CFDA–state total as if it were a budget line the state legislature passed. $2,694,337,242 is not that. It is the USAspending obligation sum on awards tagged 93.767 and MA. The overlay table at the program-in-state path is the same cell rendered as a page; this narrative is the join explained in prose. Nothing here ranks Massachusetts against other states on need, performance, or politics.

Four awards totaling $2,694,337,242 (about $673.58 million mean) is CHIP in Massachusetts as a matching stream. MassHealth branding is not a column. Research catalogs in the same state use other CFDA numbers and must not be added to this cell.

93.767 is not research and not HAP

Allergy research, aging research, and cardiovascular research in Massachusetts use other CFDA numbers. Housing Assistance Payments is a HUD catalog. Adding any of those to $2,694,337,242 would invent a broader total than this cell contains.

Facts here: Massachusetts, CFDA 93.767, $2,694,337,242, 4 awards. Federal matching percentages, benefit design, and managed-care names are not in the facts. The title names CHIP, not a child-health ranking.

The only numeric facts on this packet are $2,694,337,242, 4 awards, CFDA 93.767, program title Children's Health Insurance Program, and geography MA/Massachusetts. Any other dollar, year, recipient, or percentage would be invented. Trivial arithmetic from those facts is allowed: 4 awards into $2,694,337,242 is about $673.58 million per award. That quotient is a mean of records, not a typical household, student, or lab.

Massachusetts research catalogs are easy to pile onto a health total. They are not CHIP. $2,694,337,242 is 93.767 × MA on four awards. Housing Assistance Payments is HUD.

Massachusetts as a USAspending tag

MA is the place-of-performance code. A statewide award billed to Boston can cover CHIP statewide while still appearing as four records. Awards coded to New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Connecticut, or New York stay outside $2,694,337,242.

Massachusetts federal spending is the all-program parent. CFDA 93.767 is one row on the Massachusetts programs list. $2.69 billion is not the state’s complete federal footprint.

Place of performance MA is a two-letter code in the award file. It can mark a state capital, a campus, a housing authority, a transit agency, or a default statewide tag. It does not prove where every subcontract ran, and it does not convert $2,694,337,242 into a county map. Awards with a different state code are outside this cell even if people, patients, or riders cross the border.

Four awards and a $674 million mean

$2,694,337,242 ÷ 4 is about $673.6 million per award. With n = 4, the average is a state-scale matching stream, not a typical clinic claim and not a per-child premium. The mean is not a median. The aggregate reports net obligations supplied in the facts.

Treat 4 as a record count in an aggregate, not as 4 finished projects. USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; the $2,694,337,242 figure is the net total supplied in the facts. Without a transaction register on this page, you cannot see how many of the 4 rows are continuations, renewals, or corrections.

Using the Children's Health Insurance Program–Massachusetts overlay

The overlay target for this tie is the Massachusetts × CFDA 93.767 table. Open that path when you want the same $2,694,337,242 / 4-award cell in the site’s data chrome. The national program page for CFDA 93.767 drops the Massachusetts filter. The Massachusetts spending hub drops the CFDA filter. The Massachusetts programs index lists other catalogs beside Children's Health Insurance Program. All spending ties is the directory of other pairs.

This page exists because two tables meet: a CFDA program and a place-of-performance state. It does not exist to argue that Massachusetts “won” or “lost” federal money, that donations paid for the awards, or that obligations equal cash. Correlation is not causation. The headline number remains $2,694,337,242 on 4 awards, from USAspending.gov, for Children's Health Insurance Program in Massachusetts.

Limits
