Department of Health and Human Services federal obligations in Delaware

- Implied mean about $13.80 million per record, not a typical hospital invoice and not a typical research grant.
- Agency 075 × DE is not a Medicaid enrollment census, a hospital-bed count, or a public-health grade.
- Cite obligations, not outlays, from USAspending.gov.
- Statewide DE is not New Castle versus Kent versus Sussex.
HHS’s Delaware-coded award book
Keep two filters in view. Awarding agency is Department of Health and Human Services, CGAC 075. Geography is Delaware. The surviving file is $15,838,171,829.58 and 1,148 awards. CMS, NIH, CDC, ACF, and other HHS awarding offices can share one parent agency code. This packet does not split them. Other awarding agencies inside Delaware sit on other pages even when the same metro hosts their work.
Dollars per record come to about $13.80 million. That mean mixes large assistance or contract vehicles with smaller actions. It is not a typical hospital invoice and not a typical research grant. Unique recipients are unpublished. A small-state HHS cell with a four-digit award count can still carry a large obligation sum when the surviving rows are thick vehicles. Delaware’s 1,148 HHS actions are that kind of file in this extract.
What the HHS–Delaware pair is not
This join is not a Medicaid enrollment census, a hospital-bed count, or a public-health grade. $15,838,171,829.58 measures award obligations with a 075 awarding-agency code and a DE place-of-performance tag. Delaware is a small-state tag on USAspending, not a three-county scorecard. Wilmington, Dover, and the beach counties share DE. Awards coded to Maryland or Pennsylvania stay outside this cell even when the same metro straddles the line.
Department of Health and Human Services in Delaware is the overlay. Delaware federal spending still includes every other awarding agency in the state extract. Department of Health and Human Services is the parent agency hub without a Delaware filter. All spending ties holds the rest of the join list. Correlation is not causation: sharing a state with HHS does not mean the state caused the cell.
Obligation versus outlay on agency 075
Assistance and contract awards can obligate in one fiscal window and pay on a different schedule. $15,838,171,829.58 is the commitment sum. Treating it as cash already cleared in Delaware confuses obligations with outlays. The packet does not assign a fiscal year to the headline; treat $15,838,171,829.58 as the obligation total present in the indexed file.
Delaware’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 1,148-row HHS cell leaves USAspending.gov. Net obligations can include de-obligations. The implied mean near $13.80 million is dollars divided by records, not a typical hospital invoice and not a typical research grant.
One DE tag, not New Castle versus Kent versus Sussex
This packet does not split $15,838,171,829.58 by county, metro, or Wilmington, Dover, and Sussex County. 1,148 awards stay statewide. Neighboring Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey remain other state cells even when labor markets or projects cross those lines. Publishing New Castle versus Kent versus Sussex as a subtotal would invent a number.
Place of performance can follow work in-state, a recipient address, or a reporting convention. Department of Health and Human Services is the 075 hub without a Delaware filter. Use it for the agency book; use this page for the DE intersection only.

How to reuse the Delaware HHS integers
Keep Department of Health and Human Services, Delaware, $15,838,171,829.58, and 1,148 awards together. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished.

A small-state HHS cell with a four-digit award count can still carry a large obligation sum when the surviving rows are thick vehicles. Delaware’s 1,148 HHS actions are that kind of file in this extract.
