Veterans State Nursing Home Care in Oklahoma 4th (OK-04)

The district cut on VA nursing homes

This page exists because two tables meet: catalog 64.015 and congressional district OK-04. $766,840,801.24 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Veterans State Nursing Home Care nationwide, not the full $20,597,121,756.04 district book, and not an outlay register. The packet does not split state homes by campus and does not publish a resident denominator. 4 is an action count — modifications and continuations add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. The pair is not a bed census, a facility roster, or a named-resident file.

$766,840,801.24 divided by 4 is about $191,710,200.31 per award on average. That quotient is two packet facts. It is not a typical per-diem rate or a posted per-bed figure. 4 awards against a $766.84 million nursing-home cell is extreme concentration. Do not invent four named state homes. Do not treat OK-04’s 64.015 cell as a stand-in for every VA nursing homes account in Oklahoma. Use Oklahoma 4th District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 64.015 for CFDA 64.015 without the OK-04 filter, Oklahoma federal spending for the Oklahoma extract, and All spending ties for other pairs. Those hubs are parents, not addends to $766,840,801.24.

The VA nursing homes CFDA line

USAspending titles CFDA 64.015 as Veterans State Nursing Home Care. Crossing that catalog with Oklahoma 4th District (OK-04) place of performance produced $766,840,801.24. The national 64.015 hub does not require OK-04. The district hub does not require VA nursing homes. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 4 awards. The packet does not split state homes by campus and does not publish a resident denominator.

Correlation is not causation: Oklahoma 4th District (OK-04) did not generate $766,840,801.24 merely by existing as a geography. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 64.015 × OK-04 only. It is not a bed census, a facility roster, or a named-resident file. Do not invent contractors or award recipients. FEC contribution tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.

Reading place of performance OK-04

Oklahoma 4th District (OK-04) here is a USAspending place-of-performance field, not proof that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list OK-04 while later activity occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Oklahoma districts belong on those ties even when the CFDA is also 64.015. Oklahoma 4th District (OK-04) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Oklahoma. Sister Oklahoma districts remain separate joins even when they reuse CFDA 64.015. Oklahoma 4th District (OK-04) is the same place-of-performance stamp as CFDA 64.109. Nursing-home care is CFDA 64.015, a different VA catalog line.

USAspending obligation math on this pair

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $766,840,801.24 is that kind of sum for Veterans State Nursing Home Care inside OK-04 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without rewriting this join into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same CFDA rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $766,840,801.24 as given.

Oklahoma’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 4-row VA nursing homes cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 4 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 4 is not a count of beds, homes, or residents. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($191,710,200.31) is a concentration statistic, not a typical per-diem rate or a posted per-bed figure.

Citing $766,840,801.24 without dropping a join side

Cite USAspending.gov: Veterans State Nursing Home Care (CFDA 64.015) obligated $766,840,801.24 on 4 awards coded to Oklahoma 4th District (OK-04). Name Veterans State Nursing Home Care and Oklahoma 4th District (OK-04) together. Keep the obligation word. If Oklahoma 4th District or CFDA 64.015 has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a bed census, a facility roster, or a named-resident file. 3.7% of $20,597,121,756.04 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score. Do not add OK-04’s 64.109 and 64.015 cells and call the sum one VA program. Each CFDA is its own join.

Row count versus dollar concentration

4 awards against a $766.84 million nursing-home cell is extreme concentration. Do not invent four named state homes. A large row count makes a project split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. The implied mean (about $191,710,200.31) and the district share (3.7% of $20,597,121,756.04) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Oklahoma 4th District and CFDA 64.015 if the live tables moved.

Questions

Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $191,710,200.31, a ratio of those two facts only.

Does $766,840,801.24 include every VA nursing homes project in OK-04?

Is $766,840,801.24 cash already paid in Oklahoma 4th District (OK-04)?

No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $766,840,801.24 as checks already cleared in Oklahoma 4th District (OK-04) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 4 awards. Prefer the live district and program hubs if the tables moved.

Why is the implied average $191,710,200.31 not a typical award?

The average is $766,840,801.24 divided by 4 awards, about $191,710,200.31. Thick files pull the mean down; thin files pull it up. Neither case publishes a typical instrument. Modifications add rows. Recipients are unpublished. Use the ratio only as a concentration statistic.
