Miami recorded 104 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 1% of the national weekly total. The registry lists 40 new providers this week and 49 new providers this year. Records include 83 individuals and 21 organizations, indicating activity from both practitioners and provider entities. That concentration signals a substantial local behavioral health market, although NPI records do not establish whether a provider is actively practicing, accepting patients, staffing a site or offering ABA services.
ABA Credential Mix
The update identifies 31 BCBA providers and 55 RBT providers. These categories overlap: 6 providers hold both BCBA and RBT credentials and are included in each count. The dual-credential group is notable because it may reflect progression from direct-care work toward behavior-analytic supervision, though the registry does not confirm current job duties. The larger RBT count points to stronger direct-service capacity than supervisory capacity. For clinic operators, that imbalance can limit caseload growth if BCBA availability does not expand alongside technician staffing. The registry also reports 21 providers with multiple taxonomies, so credential and taxonomy categories are not mutually exclusive and should not be added together as separate workforce shares.
Workforce Demographics
Women account for 59 providers, or 71% of the reported workforce. Men account for 23 providers, or 28%, while one nonbinary provider represents 1%. No notable organizations appearing multiple times were identified in the supplied data. Miami’s combination of substantial weekly NPI activity, a larger RBT cohort and a smaller BCBA group suggests that ABA access may continue to depend on expanding supervisory capacity as the local direct-care workforce grows.
