Department figures follow the department-ranking rules: awards with an NIH or inferred department, not R&D contracts. They cover $1,002,778,106 of the $1,076,981,851 total; awards without a department count only in the total.
NIH gives department codes to medical-school awards but usually not to hospital awards, so ScienceDex infers a hospital award's department from its project title. How health systems are counted
