Top 1 by obligations in FY2026. Leading: North Carolina ($223.49K).

State	Obligations
North Carolina	$223.5K

Why this number?

Amounts are obligations (money committed), not outlays (money paid).
Location is where the work is performed, not where the recipient is based.
Medicare payments are published as aggregate records placed where Medicare's claims contractors are (mostly Minnesota, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, North Dakota, Connecticut, Florida and South Carolina), not where patients live, so those states show far more HHS money than their population suggests (ask for Medicare payments by patients' home state for where beneficiaries live).
'(outside the US)' is work performed abroad; '(not reported)' has no location in the source.
Company roll-ups match names and parent companies; some subsidiaries may be missed.

Top 1 by subaward amount in FY2026. Leading: NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES ($1.45M).

Company	Subawards
NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES ↗	$1.45M

Why this number?

Subawards: subcontracts and subgrants prime recipients reported (SAM.gov / FSRS via USAspending), by the subaward's action date. They're part of the primes' obligations, never extra money; reporting is required only above $30,000 and is often late or incomplete. Company = the prime; subrecipient = who got the subaward (its parent company when reported). State is where the work is done when reported, else where the subrecipient is based. FY2025 is loaded.
