Radiologist occupation money in the 2008 FEC cycle

Donors coded RADIOLOGIST accounted for $432,932 ($432,932) in the 2008 FEC cycle, from 626 itemized contributions and 309 donors. Occupation-wide, Radiologist is $5,033,550. 2008 accounts for 8.6% of the Radiologist occupation total ($432,932 of $5,033,550). Most Radiologist-coded dollars sit in other FEC cycles. LobbyVault joins the occupation table to the cycle table. It does not rank occupations by influence.

Key figures

  • $432,932 joins the Radiologist occupation string to the 2008 FEC cycle.
  • 626 contributions from 309 donors produced that cell.
  • 2008 is about 8.6% of the occupation’s $5,033,550 lifetime total.
  • RADIOLOGIST is a filer-entered title, not an ABR board extract.
  • FEC itemized receipts are not USAspending awards.

Radiologist as occupation, cycle as the other filter

Two FEC dimensions meet here: occupation RADIOLOGIST and the 2008 election cycle. The intersection is $432,932 ($432,932), 626 contributions, and 309 donors. 8.6% of Radiologist occupation dollars ($5,033,550) fall in 2008. 2008 is a presidential-year imaging-specialty cell: 626 receipts from 309 donors, a one-word medical title kept separate from Diagnostic Radiologist.

Radiologist is a one-word medical-specialty title as typed, not a board recode. Nearby strings — DIAGNOSTIC RADIOLOGIST, INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGIST, PHYSICIAN, and MD — stay on other pages. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $432,932 or $5,033,550. Diagnostic Radiologist is a longer stored string and is not folded into RADIOLOGIST here. The FEC file does not verify ABR certification, a medical license, or a DEA number.

The RADIOLOGIST string across cycles

On the occupation side, $5,033,550 ($5.0 million) is the Radiologist total across cycles. The 2008 cell is 8.6% of that roll; the remaining $4,600,618 sits in other years on the occupation hub and is not itemized by year on this packet. Radiologist is not a CMS imaging-volume ranking and not an ACR membership roll. Radiologist is not an ABR board extract, an NPI file, or a hospital imaging roster.

Open Radiologist donations for the $5,033,550 roll. Open the 2008 election cycle hub for every occupation in that window. All occupations and All FEC ties place this pair beside other occupation-cycle pages without combining dollar figures. Occupation labels are filer-entered on itemized individual receipts.

Receipts and donor keys inside this cycle cell

Inside the 2008 cell, 626 itemized contributions map to 309 donors. That is about 2.0 receipts per donor in the join — a repeat-gift ratio, not a unique-person survey of everyone who holds a similar job. Dollars per receipt average about $692; dollars per donor average about $1,401. Averages hide large and small lines sitting in the same total.

2008 is a presidential-year FEC clock. Primaries, the general election, and leftover receipts from adjacent months can share the same even-year label. This packet does not split dollars by those stages or by party. The 2008 election cycle hub shows the cycle’s full occupation mix; this page shows only the Radiologist row. 309 donors is a disclosure count for this key in 2008, not a turnout figure. Unitemized federal gifts never enter $432,932.

Two dollar columns, one occupation and one year

Keep $432,932 attached to 2008 and $5,033,550 attached to the occupation string. Adding them would double-count the 2008 dollars that already sit inside the occupation total. Subtracting them does not yield “all other cycles”; it only yields a remainder ($4,600,618) that this packet does not itemize by year.

Cite FEC.gov. Individual contributions are not PAC independent expenditures and not lobbying registrations. Nothing in the join says donations paid for a federal award or a USAspending obligation. Quote $432,932 with both nouns: Radiologist and 2008.

What a Radiologist cycle join cannot claim

Matching Radiologist with 2008 does not measure influence, does not assign party, and does not say Radiologist donors caused an electoral result. Correlation between an occupation string and a cycle is not causation. The table is also not an ABR board extract, an NPI file, or a hospital imaging roster.

Itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov only. Independent expenditures, unitemized gifts, and state-office campaigns are excluded. A person who wrote a nearby title is not in $432,932. A person who wrote this string is in it even if the day job differs. LobbyVault does not audit licenses. The public record is the string plus the dollars.

Linked radiologist hub, cycle hub, and sibling titles

Radiologist donations holds the $5,033,550 occupation total. The 2008 election cycle page holds every occupation in that window, not only Radiologist. All occupations places RADIOLOGIST beside other titles without merging sibling strings (DIAGNOSTIC RADIOLOGIST, INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGIST, PHYSICIAN, and MD). All FEC ties lists other occupation-cycle pairs so $432,932 is not added to a different year.

Use the occupation hub for all-cycle Radiologist dollars ($5,033,550). Use the 2008 cycle hub for the even-year window across titles. Use this tie for the intersection only: $432,932, 626 contributions, 309 donors, 8.6% of occupation dollars. Those four internal links are the only hrefs this copy may use. Amended individual contribution reports can move $432,932; a later harvest of the same occupation string can move $5,033,550. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved.

Questions

How much did Radiologist-labeled donors give in 2008?
The Radiologist grouping’s 2008 cell is $432,932 in itemized individual contributions, from 626 contributions and 309 donors, per FEC.gov aggregates. That is the occupation-cycle join, not a PAC total and not the $5,033,550 all-cycle occupation total.
Is Radiologist the same as Diagnostic Radiologist?
This join uses the one-word string RADIOLOGIST. Diagnostic Radiologist and Interventional Radiologist are other keys if filers spelled them out. Physician and MD sit elsewhere. The FEC file does not recode those titles into RADIOLOGIST or check a medical board.
What share of Radiologist FEC money fell in 2008?
About 8.6%. $432,932 divided by $5,033,550 is the 2008 cell’s share of the lifetime occupation bucket. Other cycles hold about $4,600,618 on the occupation hub. See the Radiologist occupation hub for other cycles and the 2008 cycle hub for other strings.
Does Radiologist 2008 money fund federal awards?
No. These figures are FEC individual contribution aggregates. Federal awards are published by USAspending. This page does not claim that campaign gifts funded those awards. $432,932 is itemized receipts tagged RADIOLOGIST in 2008, not an obligation total. Occupation labels are filer-entered.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
