Department of Health and Human Services obligations in Georgia 4th District (GA-04)
USAspending.gov records $3,992,734,955.42 in Department of Health and Human Services (agency 075) obligations with Georgia 4th District (GA-04) as place of performance. 1,184 awards carry that total, about 66.0% of the $6,049,093,268.14 district-wide obligation book on this extract. The pair is awarding agency 075 crossed with a congressional district geography tag, not the district's entire health or Medicaid budget and not a census of hospitals, patients, or named grantees. Amounts are obligations, not Treasury outlays.
Key figures
- Department of Health and Human Services in GA-04 shows $3,992,734,955.42 in USAspending obligations on 1,184 awards.
- 1,184 awards are a row count, not a census of hospitals, patients, or named grantees.
- The join is agency 075 plus GA-04, not GA-06 SEC, GA-14 RRB, or statewide Georgia HHS.
- The total is commitments, not outlays. FEC donations do not fund this cell.
HHS × GA-04 is a catalog join, not a hospital list
Georgia 4th District (GA-04) pairs HHS agency 075 with a district geography tag. The HHS slice is about two-thirds of the GA-04 book — a larger share than CA-16 HHS, on a much smaller district total. City names are not in the packet. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $3,992,734,955.42 on 1,184 awards for awarding agency 075 with Georgia 4th District (GA-04) as place of performance. Treat the pair as a table intersection, not a ranking of districts as winners or losers, and not a claim that 1,184 awards equal 1,184 health providers. A Department of Health and Human Services amount tagged to a different district is out of this cell.
VA, Labor, or Education awards that mention health in a description sit outside $3,992,734,955.42 unless those awards also carry agency 075 and GA-04 geography. Mixing those lines would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and uninsured rates or hospital beds is not causation. Those series are not in the packet. Place of performance as GA-04 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $3,992,734,955.42 in a district treasury. Georgia 6th District in this slice hosts SEC, not HHS. Georgia 14th hosts RRB. Do not mix those agencies into GA-04 HHS.
1,184 HHS awards in Georgia 4th District
One thousand one hundred eighty-four HHS awards is close to TN-05's grain. Similar row counts on different state tags still do not license adding the cells. Mean obligation is about $3,372,242.36 if $3,992,734,955.42 were divided evenly across 1,184 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a published typical award. Award count is a row count of USAspending awards, including possible modifications. The extract does not split CMS, NIH, CDC, or ACF inside agency 075. Unique recipients are unpublished.
This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open Georgia 4th District for the stored district table and Department of Health and Human Services for the national agency shelf. Do not convert 1,184 into a map of hospitals, patients, or named grantees inside Georgia 4th District. The $3,992,734,955.42 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on USAspending.gov rather than inferring an inventory.
GA-04 HHS obligations are not claims already paid
HHS obligations are commitments, not claims already paid. HHS awards often obligate as grants or contracts are recorded and draw as claims or invoices are processed. The $3,992,734,955.42 headline is the obligation sum on this district-agency join, not care already delivered or grants already drawn. Citing the figure as cash already sent confuses two USAspending concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. No fiscal year is attached to this packet; do not annualize $3,992,734,955.42 into a yearly run rate.
Keep the obligation word on $3,992,734,955.42. Keep both Department of Health and Human Services and Georgia 4th District (GA-04) in the citation. Campaign contributions recorded on FEC.gov do not fund this USAspending cell. Different datasets can share a state abbreviation without sharing a money trail.
What the Georgia 4th District HHS table omits
The extract has no roster of hospitals, patients, or named grantees. Facts remain $3,992,734,955.42, 1,184 awards, agency 075 (Department of Health and Human Services), Georgia 4th District (GA-04), and a district-wide book of $6,049,093,268.14. This page will not invent a contractor league table. Sibling district-agency joins are separate obligation totals, not a better or worse score.
Georgia 4th District places GA-04 among other congressional districts. Department of Health and Human Services places agency 075 among other awarding agencies. Georgia federal spending is the statewide shelf. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of Georgia spending or of Department of Health and Human Services's national book the packet never computed. The $3,992,734,955.42 figure is the tagged pair only. Georgia 6th District in this slice hosts SEC, not HHS. Georgia 14th hosts RRB. Do not mix those agencies into GA-04 HHS.
Citing Department of Health and Human Services in GA-04
A clean footnote names Department of Health and Human Services (agency 075), Georgia 4th District (GA-04), $3,992,734,955.42 in obligations, and 1,184 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not relabel 1,184 as a census of hospitals, patients, or named grantees. Quote the district overlay if you need every awarding agency in GA-04, and quote the agency page if you need Department of Health and Human Services without a district filter. About 66.0% of the $6,049,093,268.14 district book sits on this agency in the extract; that percentage is a derived ratio, not a separate published table.
A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is awarding agency 075. The other is congressional district place of performance as GA-04. The headline $3,992,734,955.42 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that Department of Health and Human Services caused Georgia 4th District's economy to grow, or that the district caused the awards to exist. If a later ingest moves the live overlay, prefer the overlay when the table and this snapshot diverge.

The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not the district's entire health or Medicaid budget. Other agencies in the district sit outside this join.
- Do 1,184 awards mean 1,184 GA-04 hospitals?
- No. Award count is a row count of USAspending awards and can include continuations. It is not a census of hospitals, patients, or named grantees. The packet does not name recipients. Mean obligation of about $3,372,242.36 is a quotient, not a typical published award. See Georgia 4th District for stored lines.
- Is this Georgia's entire HHS obligation book?
- No. The join is awarding agency 075 crossed with GA-04 place of performance. The district-wide book on this extract is $6,049,093,268.14. Related agencies and other districts are not inside $3,992,734,955.42 unless they also carry both keys. Georgia 6th District in this slice hosts SEC, not HHS. Georgia 14th hosts RRB. Do not mix those agencies into GA-04 HHS.
- Is the GA-04 HHS total already paid as claims?
- Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $3,992,734,955.42 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Draws and remaining balances are not published in this packet. Remaining balances are not in the facts.
