66% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund BLOOM UPSTATE INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2021 36% · 2022 63% · 2023 86% — growing more concentrated.
