$7,516,911 in itemized individual contributions is the join between the HEALTHAMERICA CORPORATION employer grouping and BREDESEN FOR SENATE (C00663658). That cell covers 158 contributions from FEC.gov individual filings. The employer grouping totals $7,711,061; this Senate committee is about 97% of that health-plan string. Near-total overlap still names two tables, not a corporate campaign account.
Key figures
- BREDESEN FOR SENATE received $7,516,911 from HEALTHAMERICA CORPORATION-coded individual gifts across 158 contributions.
- The HEALTHAMERICA CORPORATION grouping totals $7,711,061, so this committee is about 97% of that labeled money.
- About $47,575 per contribution is the mean of 158 itemized lines, not a typical premium or payroll deduction.
- Near-total overlap is still individual receipts, not a corporate check and not CMS or USAspending dollars.
HealthAmerica Corporation meeting Bredesen for Senate
HEALTHAMERICA CORPORATION is the grouped employer key as a single concatenated word plus CORPORATION. BREDESEN FOR SENATE is committee C00663658. This page reports itemized individual gifts that carried both labels. The $7,516,911 figure is the intersection. The leftover $194,150 of the grouping ($7,711,061 minus $7,516,911) went to other committees.
Spelling is brittle. HEALTH AMERICA, HEALTHAMERICA, or a parent insurer name may sit in other keys if stored that way. The Senate committee is a candidate account. Matching an insurer-style employer string to a Senate ID does not verify that donors sold health plans in Tennessee or anywhere else.
One hundred fifty-eight contributions totaling $7,516,911 is a modest line count against a 97% employer overlap.
Ninety-seven percent of the HealthAmerica Corporation grouping
The HEALTHAMERICA CORPORATION grouping shows $7,711,061 in itemized individual money. The Bredesen for Senate cell is $7,516,911, or about 97% of that total. Opening the industry hub without the committee filter would still be dominated by C00663658. The tie page makes that dominance a stated join instead of an inference.
A 97% share does not prove the corporation ran the Senate campaign or reimbursed the 158 gifts. It shows how this employer string lined up against one committee ID.

- What share of that employer grouping went to Bredesen for Senate?
- About 97% of the $7,711,061 HEALTHAMERICA CORPORATION total is in this join: $7,516,911 to C00663658. The leftover share went to other committees. A near-total share describes overlap, not a corporate treasury gift.
- Is this a donation from the health plan as a company?
