Ohio recorded 419 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 4% of the national weekly total. With 209 entries added this week, Ohio is one of the more active state markets in the update. That concentration signals a sizable and expanding behavioral health network, although the registry includes both individual clinicians and organizations across multiple specialties.

ABA Workforce Mix

The registry lists 8 BCBA credentials and 33 RBT credentials, plus 1 dual BCBA-RBT credential. These credential counts overlap with taxonomy and other credential fields, so they should not be read as mutually exclusive shares of Ohio’s provider base. The roughly four-to-one RBT-to-BCBA relationship points to a direct-service workforce that is considerably larger than its listed supervisory layer. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs and oversee treatment planning, that imbalance may create supervision constraints as ABA caseloads grow. Other entries also carry BCBA-related credentials within broader credential strings or taxonomies.

Demographics and Organizations

Ohio’s 370 individual providers include 308 women, 59 men and 3 nonbinary providers, corresponding to 83% female, 16% male and 1% nonbinary. The registry identifies 49 organizations, while 111 providers have multiple taxonomies, reinforcing that the workforce spans overlapping roles rather than discrete categories. Ashtabula County Medical Center appeared twice, as did Central Clinic Outpatient Services, suggesting repeated organizational activity in the weekly file.

Ohio’s broad provider expansion, but comparatively limited BCBA count, suggests access may improve fastest where organizations can recruit and retain qualified supervisors alongside its growing RBT workforce.
