Department of Health and Human Services federal obligations in Illinois

USAspending.gov records $131,198,580,430.51 in Department of Health and Human Services obligations under awarding agency 075 with place of performance in Illinois, across 8,353 awards. Illinois also has an SSA (028) tie with more rows and a similar dollar scale; those are different cabinets. This page is 075 only. Obligations are commitments, not outlays. Dividing the dollar total by 8,353 awards yields about $15.7 million per award on average.

Key figures

  • HHS agency 075 shows $131,198,580,430.51 in Illinois place-of-performance obligations on 8,353 awards.
  • Mean obligation is about $15.7 million per award.
  • Keep Illinois HHS (075) separate from Illinois SSA (028).
  • Illinois is a USAspending geography tag, not a Chicago-only total.
  • Figures are obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.

HHS versus SSA inside Illinois

Awarding agency 075 and place-of-performance IL produce this cell. The $131,198,580,430.51 obligation total is the HHS overlap only. The Illinois SSA cell in this harvest is a separate join with 28,253 awards. Do not add the two totals and call the sum “health and retirement spending”; USAspending already stores them apart.

Eight thousand three hundred fifty-three HHS awards is a mid-thick file. It is not a hospital census and not a count of Medicaid enrollees.

Illinois’s HHS cell is $131,198,580,430.51 on 8,353 awards. Place it next to Illinois SSA ($135.6 billion on 28,253 awards) and the file-shape contrast is obvious: similar dollars, very different row counts, different cabinets. Illinois HHS is $131,198,580,430.51 on 8,353 awards. Place it beside Illinois SSA and you see similar dollars with far fewer HHS rows and a higher HHS mean (about $15.7 million). That contrast is the reason this site publishes ties instead of one blended “Illinois social spending” number. Chicago HQ does not pull other states’ place-of-performance tags into IL. VA and USDA, if present, use other codes. The overlay, the Illinois hub, the HHS hub, and All spending ties remain the four links. Obligations are not outlays.

Awarding agency 075 in Illinois

Code 075 is Department of Health and Human Services. Veterans Affairs and Defense medical awards, if present in Illinois, use other codes. Those dollars are outside $131,198,580,430.51.

The national 075 hub drops the Illinois filter. Packet facts: obligation sum, 8,353 awards, state IL, code 075. No operating-division split is supplied.

Chicago-area hospital systems can receive awards tagged to other states, and out-of-state systems can have IL-tagged performance. The $131,198,580,430.51 total follows the geography field, not HQ. Restating the pair does not blend Illinois SSA into HHS. Awarding agency 075 and place-of-performance IL produced $131,198,580,430.51 across 8,353 awards. Similar dollars to Illinois SSA on far fewer rows is why the HHS mean is about $15.7 million. Chicago HQ does not recode other states’ geography tags. Obligations remain commitments, not outlays.

Illinois place of performance

Illinois is USAspending state code IL. Performance in Cook County, a recipient downstate, and a record that only stamps IL can all feed $131,198,580,430.51. Awards tagged MO, WI, IN, or IA stay on those ties. The join does not isolate Chicago.

Statewide Illinois federal spending is the parent. Agency 075 is one awarding agency there. $131.2 billion is not Illinois’s complete federal footprint.

Code 075 does not include VA or USDA. Those cabinets, if they award in Illinois, have other ties. Do not fold them into this HHS cell.

8,353 awards under $131.2 billion

Average obligation is about $15.7 million ($131,198,580,430.51 ÷ 8,353). That is close to Virginia’s HHS mean and far above Illinois SSA’s mean, because SSA’s Illinois file has many more rows. Different cabinets, different file shapes.

Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $131,198,580,430.51 as given. Treat 8,353 as award records in the aggregate.

Eight thousand three hundred fifty-three rows under $131.2 billion produce a $15.7 million mean. That is close to Virginia HHS. Similar means are not a shared CFDA list.

What the Illinois–HHS pair is not

A shared state tag does not mean Illinois selected these awards, and it does not mean HHS outlays equal $131,198,580,430.51 inside the state. FEC donations do not fund this cell. Correlation is not causation.

Same state, different cabinet from SSA

Illinois HHS ($131,198,580,430.51, 8,353 awards) and Illinois SSA sit at similar dollars with very different row counts. That is the teaching contrast. It does not say which cabinet “matters more.” It says USAspending stores them apart.

Hospital-system HQ in Chicago does not pull other states’ place-of-performance tags into IL. The $15.7 million mean is dollars divided by 8,353 rows. The four links out remain the overlay, the state hub, the agency hub, and All spending ties.
