How to read this
- Share of GDP: the amount as a percent of the state's gross domestic product (BEA, current dollars, the calendar year holding most of the fiscal year; years after 2025 use 2025). Spending isn't part of GDP one for one; this is a sense of scale.
- 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) (North Dakota's per-resident figure is mostly Medicare).
- Award types follow USAspending: grants include cooperative agreements; direct payments include benefits such as Social Security and Medicare; other = insurance and other assistance.
