California x 93.773 is a Medicare-HI join, not a census
This page pairs CFDA 93.773, MEDICARE HOSPITAL INSURANCE, with California place of performance. The listing is Medicare Hospital Insurance (Part A) as a CMS assistance catalog line, not a hospital cost report. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $38,138,930,612.57 on 343 awards. The extract does not list hospitals, inpatient stays, or beneficiaries. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state has more need, and not a claim that 343 awards equal 343 separate local offices.
Medicare Supplementary Medical Insurance, Medicaid, or different CMS listings sit outside $38,138,930,612.57 unless they also carry 93.773. Mixing Hospital Insurance with Part B or Medicaid would invent a combined Medicare/Medicaid figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and hospital-bed counts is not causation. Bed-count figures are not in the packet. Place of performance as California locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit the tagged dollars in a particular hospital's operating account. California as place of performance locates the tagged awards; it is not a per-capita comparison against other states.
343 awards behind $38.1 billion
Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible continuations, amendments, and payment-file batches. It is not a census of hospitals, inpatient stays, or beneficiaries. Mean obligation is about $111,192,217.53 if $38,138,930,612.57 were divided evenly across 343 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a published DRG payment, and not a typical inpatient stay cost. The packet has no inpatient-versus-skilled-nursing split inside 93.773. A 343-line file is large enough that readers should sort the overlay by amount rather than reading this page as a complete roster.
343 lines belong on the overlay table, not in a narrative roster. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Medicare Hospital Insurance in California for the stored table. Do not convert 343 into a map of California sites. The $38,138,930,612.57 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines rather than inferring a census.
Hospital Insurance obligations are not inpatient bills already settled
Medicare Hospital Insurance awards often obligate as CMS trust-fund lines tied to place of performance and draw as Part A claims are processed. The $38,138,930,612.57 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of hospital stays and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. An allocation table dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses CFDA 93.773, California geography, and the obligation metric.
The listing title is Medicare Hospital Insurance. This extract does not split inpatient from skilled nursing, and it does not split fee-for-service from Medicare Advantage if both share 93.773. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 343 awards, CFDA 93.773, and California. This page will not invent a share. Medicare Part B and Medicaid sit on different CFDA numbers.
What the California 93.773 table omits
The extract has no hospital roster, no stay count, and no beneficiary table. Facts remain $38,138,930,612.57, 343 awards, CFDA 93.773, and California. This page will not invent a ranking against other states' 93.773 joins. Medicaid and Part B are different listings, not subsets of 93.773.
California federal spending and California programs place 93.773 among other listings. CFDA 93.773 is the national catalog line. All spending ties indexes other CFDA x state pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of HHS / CMS spending the packet never computed. The $38,138,930,612.57 figure is the tagged pair only. 343 awards remain Hospital Insurance rows, not a census of hospitals, inpatient stays, or beneficiaries.
Where the 93.773 x California overlay lives
Start with Medicare Hospital Insurance in California for the 343-award table behind $38,138,930,612.57. CFDA 93.773 is the nationwide listing. California federal spending and California programs give state context. All spending ties is the shelf for other program-by-state joins on the same obligation metric. 343 awards totaling $38,138,930,612.57 remain Hospital Insurance rows, not a census of hospitals, inpatient stays, or beneficiaries. Names, unit counts, and per-unit amounts are omitted because they are not in the facts. Read the overlay rows as stored; this page will not invent a California budget share.
How to read the California × CFDA 93.773 pair
A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is the assistance listing (CFDA 93.773). The other is place of performance as California. The headline $38,138,930,612.57 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that CFDA 93.773 caused California's economy to grow, or that California caused CFDA 93.773 awards to exist. Correlation between geography and a catalog code is the join — nothing more.
Use the internal links to step off this pair: the statewide spending shelf, the national program listing, the state's other programs, and the ties index. Each of those pages uses the same obligation metric unless a page says otherwise. If you need award-level names, open the overlay rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory. If you need a different metric — outlays, current-year only, or a different geography — that metric is not in this packet. Do not annualize $38,138,930,612.57 into a per-year run rate: no fiscal year is in the facts. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join.
