Georgia recorded 217 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, accounting for 2% of the national weekly total. With 107 new providers added this week, the state represents a meaningful share of national activity and signals continued expansion of behavioral health capacity across both metropolitan and regional markets.

ABA Workforce Mix

The registry lists 17 BCBA credentials and 67 RBT credentials, along with 9 dual credentials held by providers identified as both BCBA and RBT. These categories overlap and should not be added as separate people or treated as mutually exclusive shares. The RBT-to-BCBA balance points to a sizable direct-service workforce relative to the available supervisor pool. Because BCBAs oversee RBTs and treatment planning, that mix may create pressure on supervisory capacity as clinics expand. The registry also identifies 48 multi-taxonomy providers, further showing why credential and taxonomy counts require careful interpretation.

Demographics and Organizations

Of the 184 individuals in the update, 147 were female, 34 male and 3 nonbinary; the registry reports those groups as 80%, 18% and 2%, respectively. The update includes 33 organizations, but no organization appears in the notable-organizations field multiple times. BlueSprig appears twice in the provider records, through BLUESPRIG PEDIATRICS and BLUESPRIG, indicating a presence in Georgia’s ABA provider network. Providers are concentrated among listed cities including Atlanta, Columbus, Decatur, Savannah and Alpharetta.

Georgia’s growing provider activity, especially among RBTs, suggests expanding ABA access while underscoring the need to build supervisory capacity alongside the frontline workforce.
