Washington D.C. recorded 39 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, with a reported 0% of the national weekly total. The registry lists 15 new providers this week and 20 new providers this year. The count is concentrated in Washington, with one entry using the misspelled city name “WASINGTON,” signaling that the update reflects a small, city-centered market rather than broad geographic coverage.
ABA Workforce Mix
The registry shows 0 BCBA credentials and 4 RBT credentials, with 0 dual credentials combining BCBA and RBT status. These credential categories are not a complete count of every provider who may participate in ABA, because taxonomy and credential fields can be incomplete or overlap with other behavioral health roles. Still, the absence of recorded BCBAs alongside four RBT entries points to limited documented supervision capacity in this update. RBTs typically require BCBA oversight, so clinics may need supervisors who are not captured under the BCBA credential field or may rely on providers outside this weekly registry group.
Demographics and Organizations
Of the 33 individuals listed, 21 women represented 64%, while 11 men represented 33% and one nonbinary provider represented 3%. The registry also includes 6 organizations. No organization appears multiple times in the notable-organizations field. Fourteen providers carry multiple taxonomies, but that count overlaps with the credential categories and should not be treated as a separate, mutually exclusive workforce segment.
Overall, the update suggests a compact, multidisciplinary behavioral health workforce with a small documented ABA presence and potential constraints on locally visible BCBA supervision capacity.
