Alaska recorded 45 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 0% of the national weekly total in the file. The update includes 18 new providers this week and 21 new providers this year, with 41 individuals and 4 organizations. The zero-percent share signals that Alaska remains a small contributor to nationwide registry activity, although NPI records do not establish active caseloads, hiring levels or appointment availability.
Credential Mix
The credential summary lists 3 BCBAs and 1 RBT, with no dual BCBA-RBT credentials. These categories are not mutually exclusive with taxonomy counts: the registry can identify a provider through a credential field or a taxonomy field, and the data shows BCBA and RBT taxonomies separately. The mix points to a small ABA footprint with limited technician depth and a narrow pool of credentialed supervisors. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs and oversee treatment planning and clinical quality, the ratio suggests that supervision capacity, rather than technician supply alone, may shape access to ABA services.
Demographics and Organizations
Gender data identifies 32 female providers, 8 male providers and 1 nonbinary provider, corresponding to 78%, 20% and 2%. The registry’s listed cities include Anchorage, Juneau, Fairbanks, Palmer and Wasilla, with Anchorage appearing most often among the records. No organization appears multiple times in the notable-organization field; the update includes 4 organizations overall. The broader provider mix also includes repeated LCSW and LPC counts, but those credential categories overlap with taxonomy records and should not be read as separate workforce shares.
Alaska’s limited BCBA and RBT presence suggests that expanding ABA access will depend on adding supervisors and direct-service staff across its geographically dispersed communities.
