Colorado recorded 316 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 4% of the national weekly total. The update includes 172 new providers this week, with 259 individuals and 57 organizations. That concentration places Colorado among the more active state markets in this snapshot and signals a substantial pipeline of behavioral health participation, although NPI records do not confirm staffing levels, caseloads or appointment availability.

ABA Workforce Mix

The credential summary lists 20 BCBAs, 65 RBTs and 5 providers with dual BCBA-RBT credentials. These categories overlap: the dual-credential records are included in the broader BCBA and RBT counts and should not be treated as separate groups. The registry also reports 56 providers with multiple taxonomies, another reason the fields should not be read as mutually exclusive workforce shares. The mix shows a substantially larger technician pool than supervisory pool. That can support direct ABA service delivery, but it also places pressure on BCBAs to supervise RBTs, oversee treatment plans and maintain clinical quality. The five dual-credential records suggest some career progression between technician and analyst roles.

Demographics and Organizations

Gender data identifies 203 female providers, 33 male providers and 23 nonbinary providers, representing 78%, 13% and 9%, respectively. Lacuna Autism Services LLC appears 3 times, while Treeline Pass, Four Feathers Counseling and Family Resource Network each appear 2 times. Repeated records may reflect multiple NPIs, locations or taxonomies rather than separate employers. Colorado Springs, Denver, Littleton, Aurora and Lakewood are the leading listed cities, indicating activity across both major population centers and surrounding communities.

Colorado’s update points to expanding ABA participation, but broader access will depend on converting technician growth into adequate BCBA supervision capacity.
