HHS Grants By Recipient Class
This report shows the number of formula/block & entitlement and discretionary grants and their associated dollar values organized by the recipient class.
Formula/block & entitlement and discretionary grants are included in these reports. Formula/block & entitlement programs such as Medicaid can have a large impact on the funding levels, such that a comparatively small number of awards can account for a large number of grant dollars.
Formula/block & entitlement grants are classifed as Block, Closed-Ended Entitlements, and Open-Ended Entitlements. Discretionary grants include Cooperative Agreements.
HHS has recognized 16 recipient classes:
- City Government
