North Carolina recorded 394 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 4% of the national weekly total. The registry added 170 providers this week, bringing the year-to-date count to 207. It includes 310 individuals and 84 organizations, indicating activity across both independent practitioners and provider entities. That concentration places North Carolina among the more active state markets in the update and signals sustained behavioral health investment, although NPI records do not by themselves confirm active caseloads, staffing levels or available appointments.

ABA Workforce Mix

The credential data lists 32 BCBA credentials, 85 RBT credentials and seven dual BCBA-RBT credentials. These categories overlap: dual-credentialed providers are included in the BCBA and RBT counts, and credential fields do not necessarily align one-to-one with taxonomy fields. They should not be treated as mutually exclusive shares of the provider total. Even so, the larger RBT pool points to substantial direct-service capacity relative to the BCBA supervisory workforce. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs, the imbalance can create pressure on clinical oversight as clinics expand. The dual-credential count also reflects career progression between technician and supervisory roles.

Demographics and Organizations

Among individual providers, 265 are female, 29 are male and 16 are nonbinary, recorded as 85%, 9% and 5%, respectively. Charlotte, Raleigh, Fayetteville, Durham and Cary are the leading cities listed, showing activity concentrated in major population and employment centers. Holy Angels, Inc. appears four times, while Triad Care, Inc. appears twice. The repeated entries are organization NPIs, not necessarily separate operating locations or distinct service programs.

North Carolina’s RBT-heavy mix suggests growing ABA delivery capacity, while the smaller BCBA pool makes supervisory recruitment a key factor in expanding access.
