100% 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 COCONINO COUNTY SHERIFFS SEARCH AND RESCUE FLAGSTAFF UNIT INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 68% · 2019 100% · 2020 97% · 2021 98% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — growing more concentrated.
