Utah recorded 143 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, equal to 1% of the national weekly total. The file lists 77 new this week and 87 this year; it includes 125 individuals and 18 organizations. That share signals Utah is a small part of national registry activity, not that it has a similarly small share of ABA need or capacity. NPI entries track registrations, not verified hiring, active caseloads or appointment availability.
ABA Credential Mix
The credential summary lists 23 BCBAs and 52 RBTs, plus 7 people with dual BCBA-RBT credentials. The dual-credential count overlaps the BCBA and RBT categories, so it should not be added as a separate workforce group. RBTs outnumber BCBAs by more than two to one, a mix that can support direct service delivery but leaves a smaller pool for supervision. BCBAs supervise RBTs and guide treatment, so expanding technician capacity depends on enough qualified supervisors to support safe, consistent care. The file also reports 20 providers with multiple taxonomies, another source of overlap across classifications.
Demographics and Organizations
Women account for 103 providers (82%), men 17 (14%), and nonbinary providers 5 (4%). The update supplies no notable-organization list, so it does not establish repeated appearances by a named employer. Its leading cities include Salt Lake City, Orem, St. George, West Jordan and Cottonwood Heights, suggesting activity across several population centers rather than one location alone.
Overall, the registry points to a substantial RBT presence alongside a comparatively smaller BCBA pool, making supervisory recruitment an important consideration as Utah seeks to broaden ABA access.
