Children's Health Insurance Program obligations in Virginia

What the 93.767–Virginia join is

CFDA 93.767 is titled CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM. Crossed with Virginia place of performance, the obligation sum is $1,763,123,383 on 5 awards. The national CHIP hub includes other states. Virginia’s spending hub includes other programs. Only this intersection is reported here. $1,763,123,383 is an obligation aggregate from USAspending.gov, not an outlay and not a count of enrolled children in Richmond or Fairfax.

Five awards is a concentrated formula-grant pattern: CHIP typically posts as a small number of large assistance instruments to a state. The join does not name DMAS, list health plans, or count kids. Packet facts stop at $1,763,123,383, 5 awards, VA, and 93.767. Correlation is not causation.

93.767 is not Medicaid

Medical Assistance Program (Medicaid, CFDA 93.778) is a different HHS catalog. Mixing Medicaid into $1,763,123,383 would invent a broader coverage total than this cell contains. Marketplace tax credits and 1332 waivers use other numbers still. Facts available: Virginia, CFDA 93.767, $1,763,123,383, 5 awards. Premiums and eligibility rules are not in the facts.

The catalog title names Children's Health Insurance Program, not a ranking of uninsured rates. Dividing $1,763,123,383 by 5 yields about $352.62 million per award—a statewide formula scale, not a typical Northern Virginia plan payment. Unique recipients are unpublished. 5 is not a count of health plans.

Virginia geography on the CHIP tag

VA is the place-of-performance code. A statewide CHIP award can still appear as records tagged to Richmond, Arlington, or another in-state address. Awards coded to Maryland, West Virginia, North Carolina, or the District of Columbia stay outside $1,763,123,383 even when a family lives in a metro that crosses those lines.

Virginia federal spending is the all-program parent. 93.767 is one row on Virginia programs. $1.76 billion is not the state’s complete federal footprint. Open Children'S Health Insurance Program in Virginia for the filtered table, CFDA 93.767 for 93.767 without a Virginia filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into $1,763,123,383.

Reading 5 awards under $1.76 billion

$1,763,123,383 ÷ 5 is about $352.62 million per award. That average is a state-agency scale, not a typical family premium and not a per-child cost. It is not a median. Net obligations can include downward modifications; the total shown is the aggregate in the facts. Treat 5 as a record count, not as 5 finished coverage years.

USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $1,763,123,383 is the net total supplied in the facts. Without a transaction register, you cannot see how many of the 5 rows are continuations, renewals, or corrections. Later ingests can restate $1,763,123,383 without changing the join key of 93.767 and VA.

What the CHIP–Virginia pair does not prove

A large 93.767 total tagged to Virginia does not measure whether uninsured rates fell, and it does not equal claims paid. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. The headline remains $1,763,123,383 on 5 awards for CHIP in Virginia.

Keep both sides of the join: Children's Health Insurance Program and Virginia, obligations only. Do not annualize $1,763,123,383 without a year field—this packet publishes none. Do not treat 5 as an enrollment census. Quote USAspending.gov and the overlay path rather than a coverage story.

Using the CHIP–Virginia overlay

The overlay target is the Virginia × CFDA 93.767 table. Open Children'S Health Insurance Program in Virginia when you want the same $1,763,123,383 / 5-award cell in the site’s data chrome. CFDA 93.767 drops the Virginia filter. Virginia federal spending drops the CFDA filter. Virginia programs lists other catalogs beside CHIP. All spending ties indexes 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 Virginia won or lost federal money, that donations paid for the awards, or that obligations equal cash. The pair is 93.767 plus VA. Obligations of $1,763,123,383 are not outlays.
