Emergency Physician occupation money in the 2012 cycle

2012 is a two-year FEC window. Inside it, the Emergency Physician occupation string accounts for $636,335 in itemized individual receipts — 1,074 gifts, 651 donors. $6,913,516 remains the all-cycle occupation total. 9.2% of that total is this window.

Key figures

  • $636,335 joins the Emergency Physician occupation string to the 2012 FEC cycle.
  • 1,074 contributions from 651 donors produced that cell.
  • 2012 is about 9.2% of the occupation’s $6,913,516 lifetime total.
  • EMERGENCY PHYSICIAN is a filer-entered title (a medical-specialty occupation string, not an ER-staff census).
  • FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.

2012 inside the Emergency Physician occupation book

Apply the Emergency Physician filter to the 2012 election cycle and the remaining money is $636,335. FEC.gov itemized that amount across 1,074 contributions and 651 donors. The overlay at the occupation path lists the relationship; the cycle hub lists the year without this filter.

Emergency Physician is a medical-specialty occupation string, not an ER-staff census. It is not NAICS. It is not a donor biography. 651 unique donors matched the stored string in 2012. Repeat gifts can raise 1,074 contributions without raising the donor count at the same pace.

The all-cycle Emergency Physician total of $6,913,516 still includes other windows. Citing $6,913,516 as if it were 2012 would overstate this cell. Citing the 2012 hub as if it were Emergency Physician-only would overstate the year.

The $6,913,516 occupation stack

The occupation hub holds $6,913,516. This cycle accounts for $636,335 (9.2%). The leftover $6,277,181 is other even-year windows. That leftover is not missing data; it is a different filter.

Citing $6,913,516 as if 2012 received all of it would overstate this join by $6,277,181. Emergency Physician remains a medical-specialty occupation string, not an ER-staff census. The 9.2% ratio is $636,335 divided by $6,913,516. Other even-year joins for EMERGENCY PHYSICIAN are not listed in this packet; they collectively hold $6,277,181. Citing 2012 as if it were the Emergency Physician lifetime total would overstate this cell by $6,277,181.

Itemized count versus unique donors

Contribution count (1,074) and donor count (651) measure different things. The first counts itemized receipts; the second counts distinct identities in this aggregate. $636,335 is their dollar sum.

If a searcher wants names, the hubs are the next stop, not invented biographies. This JSON file reports 651 donors without listing them. A mean of $592 per itemized line and $977 per donor can hide a few large receipts. The packet supplies no median. 1,074 contributions remaining larger than 651 donors is the expected pattern when identities give more than once.

9.2% in 2012, 90.8% elsewhere

9.2% of stored Emergency Physician money is tagged 2012 ($636,335). 90.8% is not ($6,277,181). Both percentages use $6,913,516 as the base. Changing the string changes the base.

The occupation hub holds the year-by-year index. This tie isolates 2012 so $6,913,516 is not mistaken for a two-year number. FEC cycle 2012 tags a two-year window. Odd-year receipts inside that window are in $636,335 if they were itemized against EMERGENCY PHYSICIAN. This file does not publish a year-by-year split because the facts do not.

Self-reported fields and missing tables

Missing from the packet: recipient names, party split, unitemized totals, PAC disbursements, and any USAspending figure. Present: $636,335, 1,074 contributions, 651 donors, $6,913,516 lifetime, cycle 2012, string EMERGENCY PHYSICIAN.

Self-reported fields create split spellings. PHYSICIAN, ER PHYSICIAN, and EMERGENCY MEDICINE remain other keys. $636,335 does not absorb them. Emergency Physician as a medical-specialty occupation string, not an ER-staff census can appear in licensing or contracting databases under similar names. Those tables are not this $636,335. The join does not claim a payment trail from campaign gifts to federal awards.

What to carry forward from this packet

Carry forward $636,335, 1,074, 651, 9.2%, $6,913,516, and the string EMERGENCY PHYSICIAN. Leave behind invented recipients, party shares, and contract dollars. The source note is FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. Occupation labels are filer-entered.

$592 per contribution and $977 per donor are derived means. Label them as such. A medical-specialty occupation string, not an er-staff census remains the right description of the grouping. Quote both keys: Emergency Physician and 2012. Quote the dollars: $636,335. Quote the volume: 1,074 contributions, 651 donors. Quote the source: FEC.gov. Leave NAICS codes and named donors out unless a later overlay supplies them. Restating the join without new numbers: Emergency Physician in 2012 is $636,335 from 1,074 itemized individual contributions and 651 unique donors on FEC.gov. The same string stores $6,913,516 across cycles, so 2012 is about 9.2% and other windows hold $6,277,181 (90.8%). The grouping is a medical-specialty occupation string, not an ER-staff census, not an emergency-physicians PAC, ER DOCTOR as a neighboring key, or PHYSICIAN as a shorter key. No donor names, recipient committees, party split, or USAspending dollars are in this packet. Live overlay pages override this snapshot. Mean gift size is about $592; mean per donor about $977; about 1.6 contributions per donor. Those means are arithmetic, not medians. The two-year FEC window tagged 2012 can include receipts from both years. Independent expenditures remain outside $636,335.
