Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
Social Security Admin discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Social Security Admin's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
The Medicare Hospital Insurance and Supplementary Medical Insurance trust funds' share of administrative expenses for SSA's support of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
Extracted from Social Security Administration, p. 45. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
