Department of Health and Human Services obligations in New Mexico

HHS crossed with New Mexico

Keep agency 075 and place-of-performance NM. The obligation sum in this harvest is $37,853,152,078.42. The award count is 7,228. Neither figure is New Mexico’s full federal ledger. Neither is HHS nationwide.

About $5.24 million per award is the ratio. It mixes award types. Indian Health Service, Medicaid, and research labels are not in this packet, so they are not assigned shares of $37,853,152,078.42.

$37,853,152,078.42 can look inevitable once it is printed in a headline. It is not. It is the sum of records that happen to carry both tags, 7,228 of them in this harvest. A different coding of place of performance would change the sum. So would a different awarding-agency code.

Agency 075 without the NM filter

The Department of Health and Human Services hub will not equal $37,853,152,078.42 because it drops the state key. New Mexico’s state hub drops 075. Overlay /states/nm/agencies/075/ is the both-keys table for 7,228 awards.

Neither parent page equals this pair. The awarding-agency hub omits the state and will not show $37,853,152,078.42 as its total. The state hub omits the agency and will not isolate 7,228 records for this pair. Relationship pages exist so those two omissions are not papered over.

New Mexico is not the Southwest

Place of performance NM excludes Texas, Arizona, Colorado, and Utah. HHS awards coded to those states are outside $37,853,152,078.42. Place of performance is not a tribal-nation geography field in this aggregate.

The New Mexico federal spending hub shows 075 next to other awarding agencies that also use NM. Adjacency is not a joint program.

Informal regions — coasts, valleys, capitals, “the South” — are not keys in this aggregate. $37,853,152,078.42 follows one state-equivalent code. Awards tagged to adjacent codes stay out even when work is described as regional.

Obligations, not enrollment

The published $37,853,152,078.42 is a commitment aggregate. Outlays are unpublished. No year is cited. Award count 7,228 is not an enrollment count and not a clinic count.

De-obligation can change a record. The harvested total is what this page cites.

Limits

The join does not measure health outcomes. It does not claim donations funded awards. See Department of Health and Human Services in New Mexico, New Mexico federal spending, Department of Health and Human Services, and All spending ties.

How to read this pair next to the hubs

New Mexico’s HHS pair is $37,853,152,078.42 on 7,228 awards. Tribal geography and program names are not in the facts.

Four links keep the pair honest: Department of Health and Human Services in New Mexico, New Mexico federal spending, Department of Health and Human Services, and All spending ties. $37,853,152,078.42 lives on the first. The others are context, not substitutes. 7,228 remains an award-record count.

USAspending’s obligation field can be modified after the fact. Outlays can lag or never match. No year is supplied here. $37,853,152,078.42 should not be labeled cash-on-hand. Geography is one state tag, not a region.

This file is prose around a packet. It is not a substitute for row-level research. It does not merge campaign finance into federal awards. It reports $37,853,152,078.42 on 7,228 awards for this intersection only.

De-obligation, modification, and multi-year vehicles can all sit under records that contribute to $37,853,152,078.42. That is another reason 7,228 is not a payment count. An award ID can be quiet in one period and active in another; this aggregate does not say which. The page therefore stops at obligations-as-harvested. Department of Health and Human Services in New Mexico is the place to inspect rows. New Mexico federal spending and Department of Health and Human Services are the places to drop a key. Campaign-finance datasets remain out of scope: same country, different filing system, no dollar trail into $37,853,152,078.42.

Award records are not a census of people and not a census of places. 7,228 can rise because one recipient has many instruments, because modifications were stored as new rows, or because small actions are common in this awarding agency’s reporting. $37,853,152,078.42 can be dominated by a few rows even when 7,228 is large, or by those same few rows when 7,228 is small. Without a distribution, this page will not pretend to know which pattern holds. It will keep repeating the two facts and the two keys. Place of performance still does not mean every dollar was disbursed locally. Obligations still do not mean outlays.

Questions

How much has HHS obligated in New Mexico?

USAspending records $37,853,152,078.42 in obligations for agency 075 with New Mexico place of performance, on 7,228 awards. That is an obligation join, not an outlay total. The pair is awarding agency 075 (Department of Health and Human Services) and place-of-performance New Mexico.

What is the average award?

About $5.24 million ($37,853,152,078.42 ÷ 7,228). The average mixes award types and is not a typical grant. That ratio uses only $37,853,152,078.42 and 7,228 from the packet. A mean hides mix: a few large instruments can sit beside many smaller ones.

Does this include tribal health programs by name?

The facts are agency 075 and place-of-performance NM totaling $37,853,152,078.42 on 7,228 awards. Program names and tribal geography are not in this aggregate. Only place-of-performance New Mexico plus awarding agency 075 (Department of Health and Human Services) enter $37,853,152,078.42. Adjacent state codes are other filters, if they exist as ties at all.

Are Texas or Arizona included?

No. Place of performance is New Mexico only. Other states are outside $37,853,152,078.42. Only place-of-performance New Mexico plus awarding agency 075 (Department of Health and Human Services) enter $37,853,152,078.42. Adjacent state codes are other filters, if they exist as ties at all.
