Department of Health and Human Services federal obligations in Tennessee

How the Tennessee–HHS pair is built

Awarding agency 075 and place-of-performance state TN define the cell. The $157,715,754,608.28 obligation total is the sum on records that hold both keys. The Tennessee hub and the HHS hub are the two parents; this page is only their overlap.

Four thousand four hundred fifty awards is a mid-pack row count. It does not enumerate hospitals, and it does not equal 4,450 distinct recipients. Duplicate or related instruments can sit in the same aggregate.

Tennessee’s HHS cell is $157,715,754,608.28 on 4,450 awards. Energy and defense work in the state, if present in USAspending, uses other awarding-agency codes. Those dollars are not inside this HHS total. Tennessee HHS is $157,715,754,608.28 on 4,450 awards. Energy sites in the state are a separate awarding-agency problem if they appear at all. They do not appear in these facts as a named split, and they do not belong inside 075. Memphis, Nashville, Knoxville, and Chattanooga share one TN tag. The $35.4 million mean is close to Wisconsin HHS and far below South Carolina HHS; closeness of means is not identical program mix. Kentucky-, Alabama-, Georgia-, and North Carolina-tagged awards stay on those ties. SSA in Tennessee is a different cell. Obligations are not outlays.

Department 075 versus other Tennessee cabinets

Code 075 is Department of Health and Human Services. Energy, Defense, and Social Security run their own Tennessee ties. Those figures are outside $157,715,754,608.28.

Open the agency 075 hub to drop the Tennessee constraint. Facts here: obligation sum, 4,450 awards, state TN, code 075. No Oak Ridge versus Memphis split is in the packet.

Memphis, Nashville, Knoxville, and Chattanooga share one TN tag. The join does not isolate any of them. The $157,715,754,608.28 figure is statewide place of performance for agency 075. Restating the pair does not add a fiscal year the packet omitted. Awarding agency 075 and place-of-performance TN produced $157,715,754,608.28 across 4,450 awards. Energy Department English is a different code. SSA in Tennessee is a different cell. The $35.4 million mean will change only if those two inputs change. Until then, treat 4,450 as award records in the aggregate, not as 4,450 finished projects, and treat obligations as commitments rather than outlays already sitting in Tennessee bank accounts.

Tennessee as a USAspending state code

Tennessee is geography tag TN. Performance in Shelby County, a recipient in Davidson County, and a record that only stamps TN can all sit inside $157,715,754,608.28. Awards coded to Kentucky, Alabama, or Georgia belong on other ties even when the labor market crosses the state line.

Statewide Tennessee federal spending is the parent. Agency 075 is one awarding agency there. $157.7 billion is not the state’s complete federal ledger.

Awards tagged to Kentucky, Alabama, Georgia, or North Carolina stay on those ties even when a Tennessee hospital system operates across the line. The geography field is the gate.

4,450 awards under $157.7 billion

Average obligation is about $35.4 million ($157,715,754,608.28 ÷ 4,450). The ratio is close to Wisconsin’s HHS mean and far below South Carolina’s. Closeness of means is not evidence of identical program mix.

Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $157,715,754,608.28 as given. Treat 4,450 as award records in the aggregate.

Four thousand four hundred fifty records under $157.7 billion produce a $35.4 million mean. That ratio is useful as a concentration check and useless as a typical invoice. The distribution is not in the facts.

Caveats on the join

A shared state tag does not mean Tennessee selected these awards, and it does not mean HHS outlays equal $157,715,754,608.28 inside the state. Campaign-finance records are a different dataset. Correlation is not causation.

Energy country, HHS code

Tennessee conversations often jump to Energy Department sites. Those sites, if they appear in USAspending, use other awarding-agency codes. This cell is 075. The $157,715,754,608.28 total does not include Energy, Defense, or SSA.

Four thousand four hundred fifty awards under that dollar total produce a $35.4 million mean. Report the mean. Do not treat it as a typical hospital payment. Place of performance remains TN, not a named city.
