Ohio recorded 419 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 4% of the national weekly total. That concentration points to a substantial behavioral health market, but registry activity is not a count of confirmed hires, active clinicians or available appointments. The file includes 183 providers added this week and 209 added this year.

ABA Workforce Mix

The credential summary lists 9 BCBAs and 35 RBTs, with no dual BCBA-RBT credentials reported. That is roughly four RBTs for each BCBA, a mix that suggests a larger technician pool than supervisory pool. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs, growth in technician registrations alone does not establish that clinics have enough clinical capacity to oversee care. The summary also lists a BCBA in the “other” credential field, while the provider records include BCBA credentials in varied formats; credential and taxonomy labels may not capture the same population, so these counts should not be treated as a complete workforce census.

Demographics and Organizations

The registry reports 283 women, or 79%; 71 men, or 20%; and 6 nonbinary providers, or 2%. Percentages are rounded, and the counts do not sum to the total provider count. Everside Health, LLC appears 10 times in the notable-organization summary, while Marathon Health, LLC appears 5 times. Those repeated records indicate multiple listings, not necessarily distinct employers. Columbus, Cincinnati, Toledo, Akron and Cleveland are the leading listed cities.

Ohio’s update shows broad behavioral health registry activity, but the comparatively smaller BCBA count highlights supervision as a potential constraint on expanding ABA access.
