The data can be explored by searching for specific payee names or by browsing by Government Function. The Open Checkbook app( http://opencheckbook.ct.gov) allows the user to drill down from aggregated spending accounts all the way down to each individual payment to a payee. \n\nThe  data is updated nightly and therefore reflects current spending activities more accurately than any other publicly available source. In general the data reflects all payments made up to 24 to 48 hours prior to view.\n\nCertain payee names have been removed in order to protect the privacy of individuals, in accordance with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations or where the information is otherwise protected by law. \n\nRedacted information includes:\n\u2022Payees who are statutorily protected\n\u2022Information that would lead to violating HIPAA laws\n\u2022Information of Minors\n\nThis dataset will be removed from data.ct.gov on 11/3/2021 as part of efforts to declutter and improve the quality of the Open Data Portal.
