Orthopaedic Surgeon political contributions from Georgia

The Orthopaedic Surgeon–Georgia intersection

Occupation ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON and donor state GA produce $691,466, 1,150 contributions, and 295 donors. The occupation hub is $15,862,739, 29,969 contributions, and 6,711 donors. Georgia’s dollar share is about 4.4%; contribution share about 3.8% (1,150 of 29,969); donor share about 4.4% (295 of 6,711). Two hundred ninety-five Georgia donors sit inside 6,711 national ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON donors. Donor share outruns contribution share (1,150 of 29,969) on this specialty cell.

ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON, SURGEON, and PHYSICIAN, if used, sit in other hubs. Do not stack ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON with ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON or SURGEON into a single Georgia professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

295 Georgia donors produced 1,150 contributions, about 3.9 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 4.5 rows per donor nationally (29,969 contributions from 6,711 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this Georgia cell is about $601, against about $529 nationwide. Georgia’s $691,466 is address-coded itemized money, not a CMS orthopedic-billing total. Six thousand seven hundred eleven national donors make this one of the larger specialty hubs in the extract.

ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON as a spelling-specific specialty

ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON is a filer-entered string. The AE spelling is the point of the hub. The FEC file does not verify board certification or a Georgia medical license. The $15,862,739 national total is ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON only. 6,711 donors produced 29,969 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 29,969 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Georgia (GA). Twenty-nine thousand nine hundred sixty-nine national contributions make this a mid-volume specialty. This tie locates the Georgia overlap.

Georgia as donor state

295 Georgia donors produced 1,150 contributions totaling $691,466. Donor state GA is the address on the record, not proof of a Georgia license, and not a limit to Georgia candidates. GA is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a Georgia medical license, and not a map of which campaigns received the $691,466.

The Georgia campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to GA. This join is only ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON. The Orthopaedic Surgeon occupation hub without Georgia still holds about 95.6% of the $15,862,739. Georgia’s state hub includes every occupation coded to GA. ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON is only this filter.

What not to infer from Orthopaedic Surgeon plus Georgia

This page does not count board-certified surgeons, merge the American spelling, or claim that Orthopaedic Surgeon-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON is not SURGEON and not PHYSICIAN even when filers meant the same clinic.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON is not a medical-board extract. Donor state GA is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. NPI numbers are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Orthopaedic Surgeon filter

Subtract the Georgia dollars on this page from the national ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON in every other state combined. That remainder ($15,171,273) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count of 295 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 1,150 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $691,466 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Georgia dollars, or only the ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON national total, drops a key. Two hundred ninety-five donors producing 1,150 contributions is the fact to keep next to the $691,466 headline.
