USAspending.gov shows $99.1B in net obligations recorded under this office across 363,371 award records to 353 distinct identified recipients.
362,465 of these records ($95.5B) are aggregated payments to individuals: VA reports benefit and care payments to USAspending as one record per program, county (or state) and period, under the placeholder recipient “MULTIPLE RECIPIENTS” or “REDACTED DUE TO PII”, to protect veterans' privacy. Each is a summary line, not a contract or grant to a named party, so these records count toward obligations but not toward identified recipients.
Each transaction counted in the U.S. fiscal year (Oct–Sep) of its action date · nominal dollars · actuals only, no projection
Same rule as the trends page: obligations are commitments, not cash paid; de-obligations are netted. Shaded years (FY2008–FY2013): USAspending's coverage of aggregated benefit records is incomplete, so low values there reflect reporting, not lower spending. FY2026 is partial (to 2026-09-04).
