Charlotte recorded 58 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 1% of the national weekly total. The registry lists 29 new providers this week and 35 new providers this year. The total includes 44 individuals and 14 organizations, signaling an active regional behavioral health market with ongoing practitioner and agency formation.
ABA Credential Mix
The credential data includes 3 BCBAs and 14 RBTs, with no providers holding both BCBA and RBT credentials. The categories are not mutually exclusive with the broader taxonomy data, however: credential fields and registry taxonomies can identify the same provider in different ways. The relatively small number of BCBAs compared with RBTs points to limited recorded supervisory capacity relative to the direct-care workforce, an important consideration for ABA organizations managing caseloads and supervision requirements. Overall, 14 providers reported multiple taxonomies, indicating that some practitioners or entities serve overlapping behavioral health roles.
Workforce Demographics
Charlotte's individual workforce is predominantly female, with 38 female providers, compared with 5 male providers and 1 nonbinary provider. The registry also includes social workers, counselors, case-management professionals and community behavioral health agencies, showing that the update extends beyond ABA-specific roles. Touch Of Angel LLC appeared twice, the only organization identified as appearing multiple times in the update.
Charlotte's mix of new registrations, RBT-heavy ABA credentials and relatively few BCBAs suggests expanding direct-care capacity while supervisory resources remain a key constraint on access.
