Charlotte recorded 52 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 1% of the national weekly total. The registry lists 30 new providers this week and 33 new providers this year. With 39 individuals and 13 organizations, Charlotte shows concentrated behavioral health registration activity, although NPI records capture clinicians and entities rather than confirmed active practices, caseloads or available appointments.
ABA Credential Mix
The update identifies 6 BCBA providers and 15 RBT providers. These categories overlap: 1 provider holds both BCBA and RBT credentials and is counted in each total. Credential categories and taxonomies are not mutually exclusive; 11 providers have multiple taxonomies. The registry also includes counselors, social workers, addiction counselors, case managers and other behavioral health professionals. The larger RBT group indicates a meaningful direct-care workforce, while the smaller BCBA pool suggests a tighter supervisory base. In ABA operations, that imbalance can limit how quickly teams expand unless BCBAs supervise multiple RBTs or providers recruit additional supervisors. The records do not establish employment relationships, clinical hours or current caseload capacity.
Workforce Demographics
Women account for 29 providers, or 74% of the reported workforce. Men account for 5 providers, or 13%, and nonbinary providers account for 5 providers, or 13%. No organization appears multiple times in the supplied notable-organizations data, so the update does not identify a repeated employer or network pattern. Charlotte’s registry activity therefore points to a growing and varied behavioral health workforce, with RBT participation supporting direct services but BCBA supply remaining important for expanding supervised ABA access.
