AMERICAN COLLEGE OF CARDIOLOGY PAC (HEARTPAC)

A narrow specialty string, a majority PAC slice

54.6% of Adult Cardiology itemized dollars landed on HeartPAC. $2,337,909 went to other federal committees. Cardiologist, pediatric cardiology, and interventional cardiology can exist as other occupation keys and are not inside these integers unless stored as ADULT CARDIOLOGY.

14,279 receipts at mean $197 is a high-count pattern for a $2.8 million join. Repeat itemizations can raise the count. Unique donors are unpublished.
