Emergency Physician money to ACEP’s National Emergency Medicine PAC

Filers who listed Emergency Physician on FEC Schedule A sent $4.7 million ($4,737,685) to NATIONAL EMERGENCY MEDICINE POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE / AMERICAN COLLEGE OF EMERGENCY PHYSICIANS (C00140061). That join is 21,529 itemized receipts and 68.5% of the occupation’s $6.9 million ($6,913,516) across all federal committees. The rest of the occupation book, $2.2 million, went to other recipients. Independent expenditures are outside this table.

Key figures

  • Emergency Physician → ACEP NEMPAC (C00140061): $4,737,685 in 21,529 itemized receipts.
  • That join is 68.5% of the occupation’s $6,913,516 FEC book.
  • Mean $220 is arithmetic, not a typical gift or a unique-donor figure.
  • Itemized individual contributions only; independent expenditures are excluded.

A specialty string meeting a specialty committee

This page is a join, not a restatement of either hub. Emergency Physician is the occupation key as stored on FEC.gov. C00140061 is one committee. $4,737,685 is only the overlap: itemized individual contributions that carry both labels. The occupation hub still holds $6,913,516. The committee overlay still holds whatever that PAC raised from every occupation, which this packet does not publish.

21,529 receipts at a mean of $220 describe a thick, repeat-gift pattern more than a handful of max-out checks. Mean is arithmetic on the two packet integers. It is not a typical gift, not a limit, and not a payroll deduction schedule. Unitemized gifts never enter $4,737,685.

Open Emergency Physician for every committee that received the occupation string. Open the ACEP NEMPAC committee page for every occupation that gave to C00140061. All occupations and All FEC ties keep this pair in the wider index. The three doors plus this join are the citation set.

Keep Emergency Physician → ACEP NEMPAC (C00140061): $4,737,685 in 21,529 itemized receipts. on one sentence and the occupation-wide total on another. All FEC ties is the index for other occupation-to-committee pages. This snapshot does not replace FEC.gov bulk files.

What the Emergency Physician total still contains

Emergency Physician filers reported $6,913,516 in itemized individual contributions to all federal committees in the aggregate window. 68.5% of that book is this PAC. 31.5% ($2,175,831) is everything else: candidate committees, party committees, other PACs, and any other recipient that stored the same occupation string.

The label is self-reported. Emergency medicine, ER physician, and emergency room physician can exist as other occupation keys. They are not inside $6,913,516 unless FEC stored them as EMERGENCY PHYSICIAN. LobbyVault does not recode synonyms into one specialty total.

Quote Emergency Physician for the occupation-wide $6,913,516 and quote NATIONAL EMERGENCY MEDICINE POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE / AMERICAN COLLEGE OF EMERGENCY PHYSICIANS (C00140061) for the committee overlay. The overlap remains $4,737,685 across 21,529 itemized receipts, 68.5% of the occupation book, mean $220. Remainder $2,175,831 (31.5%) went to other federal committees that stored the same occupation string. All occupations and All FEC ties keep the pair in the index. Itemized individual contributions only; independent expenditures are outside the source note. Later FEC bulk files override this snapshot. Do not add $4,737,685 to $6,913,516. Do not treat 21,529 as unique donors.

What C00140061 shows on this join

NATIONAL EMERGENCY MEDICINE POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE / AMERICAN COLLEGE OF EMERGENCY PHYSICIANS is the committee name on the overlay. $4,737,685 is not that PAC’s total receipts. It is receipts from the Emergency Physician occupation key only. Other titles—physician, doctor, medical director—can appear on the same committee and sit outside this join.

The packet does not publish a cycle split, a state split, or a connected-versus-unconnected flag. Cite FEC.gov for amended filings. This prose is a snapshot of the occupation-by-committee aggregate, not a PAC annual report.

What the join refuses to say

A claim that emergency physicians as a workforce gave $4,737,685. The unit is filers who typed this occupation, not a headcount of board-certified emergency physicians. A claim that ACEP membership dues funded the PAC. Dues are not Schedule A occupation totals.

Motive, vote scoring, and hospital-system influence are not fields. Correlation between a specialty string and a specialty PAC is expected on FEC forms; it is not causation. Independent expenditures by or about this PAC sit outside $4,737,685.

How to cite the two integers

Quote $4,737,685 with C00140061 and Emergency Physician together. Quote $6,913,516 only as the occupation-wide book. Do not add them. Do not treat 21,529 as unique donors; it is a contribution count and can include repeat givers.

Source: FEC.gov aggregates of itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee. Not independent expenditures. Later bulk files override this snapshot. All FEC ties lists sibling occupation-to-committee pages.

Questions

How much did Emergency Physician filers give to ACEP’s PAC?
The join is $4,737,685 across 21,529 itemized receipts to C00140061. That is 68.5% of the Emergency Physician occupation total of $6,913,516. The figure is itemized individual contributions on FEC.gov, not independent expenditures and not the PAC’s receipts from other occupations.
Is $4.7 million the PAC’s total fundraising?
No. $4,737,685 is only the Emergency Physician occupation key to this committee. NATIONAL EMERGENCY MEDICINE POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE / AMERICAN COLLEGE OF EMERGENCY PHYSICIANS can receive itemized gifts under other occupation strings. Those rows are on the committee overlay, not in this join.
Does the mean gift of $220 describe a typical check?
No. $220 is $4,737,685 divided by 21,529 receipts. Repeat payroll-style itemizations can pull the mean down. A few large gifts can pull it up. The packet has no median and no unique-donor count. Use the two integers, not the mean, as the citation.
Where are the live tables for this pair?
Emergency Physician holds the occupation-wide $6,913,516. The committee page for C00140061 holds the PAC overlay. All occupations and All FEC ties place the pair in the index. This /ties/ page is only the overlap of the two keys.
