Department of Health and Human Services federal obligations in Louisiana

USAspending.gov records $77,582,447,161.89 in Department of Health and Human Services obligations under awarding agency 075 with place of performance in Louisiana, across 2,662 awards. Among HHS state cells in this harvest, Louisiana’s award file is among the thinnest, which raises the mean to about $29.1 million. That is a concentration flag, not a ranking of Louisiana’s providers and not a disaster-relief narrative the packet does not support. Obligations are commitments, not outlays.

Key figures

  • HHS agency 075 shows $77,582,447,161.89 in Louisiana place-of-performance obligations on 2,662 awards.
  • Mean obligation is about $29.1 million per award.
  • A thin HHS file raises the mean; it is not a disaster-relief total.
  • Louisiana is a USAspending geography tag, not a parish map.
  • Figures are obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.

A thin HHS file in Louisiana

Awarding agency 075 and place-of-performance LA define this join. The $77,582,447,161.89 obligation total is the sum on 2,662 records that hold both keys. Louisiana’s all-agency hub and HHS’s all-state hub are the parents.

Two thousand six hundred sixty-two awards is close to South Carolina HHS (2,745) and well below Maryland’s 27,250. Sparse rows under $77.6 billion raise the mean. The page does not interpret that as efficiency or as storm-related spending; those stories are not in the facts.

Louisiana’s HHS cell is $77,582,447,161.89 on 2,662 awards. Disaster-relief English labels invite FEMA stories. FEMA is a different awarding-agency code. This page is 075 only. The packet does not support a storm narrative. Louisiana HHS is $77,582,447,161.89 on 2,662 awards. FEMA is a different awarding-agency code. Disaster English is a misread of 075. Two thousand six hundred sixty-two rows produce a $29.1 million mean, a thin-file concentration flag. New Orleans is not isolated. Parishes share one LA tag. Texas-, Mississippi-, and Arkansas-tagged awards stay on those ties. HUD and Homeland Security, if they award in Louisiana, use other codes. Obligations are not outlays.

Awarding agency 075 in Louisiana

Code 075 is Department of Health and Human Services. FEMA, HUD, and other cabinets that sometimes appear in Gulf Coast discussions use other codes. Mixing them into $77,582,447,161.89 would erase USAspending’s agency dimension.

The national 075 hub drops the Louisiana filter. Packet facts: obligation sum, 2,662 awards, state LA, code 075. No New Orleans-versus-Baton Rouge split is supplied.

Orleans Parish, East Baton Rouge Parish, and the rest of the state share one LA tag. The join does not isolate New Orleans. Awards tagged TX, MS, or AR stay on those ties. Restating the pair does not convert HHS into FEMA. Awarding agency 075 and place-of-performance LA produced $77,582,447,161.89 across 2,662 awards. The $29.1 million mean is a thin-file concentration flag. New Orleans is not isolated. Parishes share one LA tag. Obligations remain commitments, not outlays.

Louisiana as place of performance

Louisiana is USAspending state code LA. Performance in Orleans Parish, a recipient in East Baton Rouge Parish, and a record that only stamps LA can all sit inside $77,582,447,161.89. Awards tagged TX, MS, or AR stay on those ties. The join does not publish a parish table.

Statewide Louisiana federal spending is the parent. Agency 075 is one awarding agency there. $77.6 billion is not Louisiana’s complete federal footprint.

Two thousand six hundred sixty-two rows under $77.6 billion produce a $29.1 million mean. A thin HHS file raises the mean. South Carolina HHS is similarly thin with a higher dollar total and a higher mean.

2,662 awards under $77.6 billion

Average obligation is about $29.1 million ($77,582,447,161.89 ÷ 2,662). That sits between New Jersey HHS ($21.4 million) and South Carolina HHS ($80.3 million). A thin file raises the mean. The average is not a typical clinic contract.

Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $77,582,447,161.89 as given. Treat 2,662 as award records in the aggregate.

Code 075 does not include HUD or Homeland Security. Those cabinets, if they award in Louisiana, have other ties. The $77,582,447,161.89 figure is HHS only.

What the Louisiana–HHS pair is not

A shared state tag does not mean Louisiana selected these awards, and it does not mean HHS outlays equal $77,582,447,161.89 inside the state. FEC donations do not fund this cell. Correlation is not causation.

HHS is not FEMA on the Gulf

Louisiana HHS at $77,582,447,161.89 on 2,662 awards is cabinet 075. FEMA, HUD, and Homeland Security use other codes. Disaster English is a reading error unless those codes appear in the facts. They do not.

Two thousand six hundred sixty-two rows produce a $29.1 million mean. New Orleans is not isolated. Parishes share one LA tag. Keep 075 separate from other Gulf-related cabinets. Obligations are not outlays.
