Department of Veterans Affairs obligations in Virginia 10th District (VA-10)
$1,599,575,540.19 in USAspending.gov obligations pairs awarding agency 036 (Department of Veterans Affairs) with Virginia 10th District (VA-10) across 843 awards. The join is awarding-agency 036 crossed with a VA-10 location field, not Virginia’s entire veterans budget and not a named medical-center or patient roster. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one.
Key figures
- Department of Veterans Affairs (agency 036) × VA-10: $1,599,575,540.19 across 843 awards.
- About 5.8% of the VA-10 district parent $27,507,429,805.20 by arithmetic.
- 843 awards are a row count, not a patient or clinic census.
- Obligations are not outlays; no fiscal year is in the packet.
VA × VA-10 is a care join, not a Northern Virginia patient census
This page is a join: Department of Veterans Affairs (agency 036) as awarding agency, and Virginia 10th District (VA-10) as congressional district place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations to $1,599,575,540.19 on 843 awards. The join is awarding-agency 036 crossed with a VA-10 location field, not Virginia’s entire veterans budget and not a named medical-center or patient roster. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which district received more, and not a claim that 843 awards equal 843 patients, clinics, or unique contractors.
DoD health lines, HHS, or VA-coded awards in VA-11 sit outside this total unless they also carry agency 036 and VA-10. Mixing those books into $1,599,575,540.19 would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and veteran population is not causation. Enrollee and bed-day tables are not in the packet. Place of performance as VA-10 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $1,599,575,540.19 in a district treasury. Loudoun-versus-Prince William folklore is not a geography split in this packet.
843 awards behind $1.60 billion
Mean obligation is about $1,897,479.88 if $1,599,575,540.19 were divided evenly across 843 lines. That ratio is not a published cost per patient and not a typical CCN claim. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of patients, clinics, or unique vendors. Eight hundred forty-three awards against a $1.60 billion cell is a mid-size VA file inside a much larger district parent.
Medical contracts and leases can both appear among the 843 lines. This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open Virginia 10th District for the stored district table. Do not convert 843 into a map of Virginia 10th District VA clinics. The $1,599,575,540.19 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on the overlay rather than inferring a patient census.
Virginia 10th District, not a Dulles-corridor clinic rollup
Virginia 10th District (VA-10) is one geography tag on USAspending awards, not a commuting zone and not a metro list. Awards tagged to VA-11, VA-07, or another Virginia district are out even if the suburb sounds related. Recipient address can differ from that district tag. The district parent in this extract is $27,507,429,805.20 across every awarding agency; $1,599,575,540.19 is the Department of Veterans Affairs slice — about 5.8% of that parent by arithmetic. Subtracting is tempting; this page still does not publish the leftover agency list.
A statewide VA figure on Virginia federal spending mixes every district and is dominated by other agencies in this extract. Do not rank VA-10 against neighboring districts as a winner or loser. Other Virginia district cells are other joins. Virginia federal spending is the statewide book without a district filter. Adding statewide Department of Veterans Affairs dollars to $1,599,575,540.19 would double count. Campaign-finance filings are a different public-record system; this join does not claim donations funded these obligations.
Agency 036 obligations are not community-care claims already paid
VA awards often obligate as medical contracts, leases, and assistance rows and draw as care is delivered. The $1,599,575,540.19 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of encounters completed and not a Treasury outlay total. A VA medical-center dashboard dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses agency 036, VA-10 geography, and the obligation metric.
Department of Veterans Affairs is the nationwide agency book without a VA-10 filter. This extract does not split health care from benefits, and it does not split community care from in-house contracts. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 843 awards, agency 036, and Virginia 10th District. This page will not invent a share. Unique recipients remain unpublished.
What the VA-10 Veterans Affairs table omits
The extract has no medical-center names, patient counts, or contractor names. Facts remain $1,599,575,540.19, 843 awards, agency 036, Department of Veterans Affairs, Virginia 10th District (VA-10), and district parent $27,507,429,805.20. Facility folklore belongs on another extract if it appears at all. Keep the obligation label. Later ingests can revise both the dollars and the 843-award count; prefer the live table when the overlay and this snapshot diverge.
Where the VA × VA-10 pair lives
Start with Virginia 10th District for the district rollup that contains this Department of Veterans Affairs cell. Department of Veterans Affairs is the nationwide agency listing. Virginia federal spending gives Virginia context without a VA-10 filter. All spending ties indexes other two-key joins on the same obligation metric. 843 awards totaling this cell remain an administrative file, not a patient census. Keep both Department of Veterans Affairs and Virginia 10th District (VA-10) in every citation sentence. Do not recast $1,599,575,540.19 as cash already paid or as Virginia’s entire veterans appropriation. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join.
