New Mexico had 119 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 1% of the national weekly total. The file lists 56 new this week and 65 new this year, including 103 individuals and 16 organizations. The state’s small share signals that its registry activity is a limited part of the national picture; NPI records do not establish hiring, active staffing or appointment availability.
ABA Workforce Mix
The credential summary lists 7 BCBAs and 36 RBTs, with no dual BCBA-RBT credentials reported. That is roughly five RBTs per BCBA, a technician-heavy mix that may indicate a need to grow the supervisory pool as direct-service capacity expands. BCBAs supervise RBTs and guide treatment, so registry counts alone cannot show whether current supervision is adequate. The credential and taxonomy categories may overlap: the file reports 34 providers with multiple taxonomies, and those records should not be read as separate workers for each classification. The listed cities include Albuquerque, Las Cruces, Rio Rancho, Alamogordo and Santa Fe.
Demographics and Organizations
The gender breakdown lists 75 women (73%), 16 men (16%) and 12 nonbinary providers (12%). The percentages sum to more than 100% because of rounding. The data supplies no notable-organizations list, and the provider records do not show an organization appearing repeatedly as a named entity. Several organizations have behavior-related taxonomies, including Airborne ABA NM LLC and Supportive Care ABA NM LLC, but the registry listing does not establish their staffing or service volume.
The update points to a larger RBT than BCBA count, making supervisory recruitment and capacity an important consideration for expanding ABA access in New Mexico.
