Department of Health and Human Services federal obligations in Kansas
USAspending.gov records $20,667,657,279.88 in Department of Health and Human Services obligations under awarding agency 075 with place of performance in Kansas, across 2,137 awards. The join names HHS and Kansas: one awarding-agency code and one state geography tag. It does not say Topeka issued these awards or that every hospital in the state sits in the file. Obligations are not outlays. Dividing $20,667,657,279.88 by 2,137 awards produces about $9.67 million per award on average.

The HHS–Kansas intersection
This tie reports awards tagged to agency 075 and to Kansas (KS) place of performance. The $20,667,657,279.88 figure is the USAspending aggregate for that pair. Kansas’s statewide federal-spending hub includes every awarding agency; the HHS national hub includes every state. This page restates the overlap only.
Two thousand one hundred thirty-seven awards against $20.67 billion is a moderately sparse book for the dollars involved. That geometry often appears when large assistance awards sit alongside smaller procurement, but the facts do not name Medicaid, research, or public-health listings. The join does not measure Kansas health outcomes.
Kansas’s 2,137 HHS records and $20,667,657,279.88 should not be footnoted as a complete picture of federal health dollars in the state. VA, Defense health, and USDA nutrition, if present, use other awarding agencies. This join is 075 and KS only. Completeness would require the statewide hub, not this cell.
Awarding agency 075
Code 075 is the Department of Health and Human Services. Operating divisions can sit under that parent in the source. This packet does not list them. The overlay /states/ks/agencies/075/ is the table view of the same $20,667,657,279.88 and 2,137-award pair.
Readers who need HHS awards without a Kansas constraint should open the agency 075 hub. Stretching this tie into a national HHS total would drop the state filter.
Kansas on the place-of-performance field
Kansas is state code KS. Recipients based in the state, work performed there, and awards that simply list KS can all share the $20,667,657,279.88 sum. Awards coded to Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, or Colorado stay out even when metro areas straddle those lines. The table does not model those crossings.
Statewide Kansas spending is the parent geography. HHS is one awarding agency inside it. Agriculture and Defense cells for Kansas, if present on this site, are different agency codes. This page keeps 075 and KS only.
Average size of the 2,137 awards
About $9.67 million per award ($20,667,657,279.88 ÷ 2,137) is a mean, not a median. A few very large assistance awards can dominate. Downward modifications can cut the net total without cutting the award count. 2,137 is best read as records in the aggregate, not as 2,137 hospitals.
The ratio is a concentration check against high-volume Defense tables. It is not a quality score and not a ranking of Kansas against other states.
Limits of the join
Place-of-performance overlap does not mean Kansas campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert $20,667,657,279.88 into outlays. The page does not rank the state by need. It reports one USAspending cell.

How to read the Kansas–HHS numbers
Kansas HHS ($20,667,657,279.88, 2,137 awards) should not be paraphrased as KanCare unless a CFDA-state page says so. This join is agency 075. KanCare is a program brand. The two labels meet only if the underlying awards carry 075 and KS — which this aggregate does not prove program by program. Two thousand one hundred thirty-seven rows against $20.67 billion is assistance-shaped, not micro-purchase-shaped. Assistance-shaped is still not a CFDA list. NIH, CMS, and ACF, if present, share the bucket. Unpacking them is other work.
Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Colorado meet Kansas. Kansas City straddles a state line in ordinary speech. USAspending does not straddle. MO-tagged awards are Missouri’s cell. $20,667,657,279.88 is the KS-tagged HHS slice only.
