Washington D.C. recorded 53 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 0% of the national weekly total. The registry includes 24 new providers this week, with 43 individuals and 10 organizations overall. The reported share rounds to zero, signaling that D.C.’s activity is small relative to the national update even as the district’s provider base continues to change. NPI records indicate registry activity, not confirmed caseloads, open appointments or operating capacity.
ABA Workforce Mix
The credential data lists 2 BCBAs and 8 RBTs, with no dual BCBA-RBT credentials. These categories can overlap with taxonomy fields and should not be treated as mutually exclusive shares of the 53-provider total. The RBT-to-BCBA gap points to more direct-service technician capacity than identified supervisory capacity. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs, design treatment programs and monitor clinical quality, a small BCBA pool can limit how quickly RBT growth translates into expanded ABA access. The absence of dual credentials also suggests no visible overlap between those two credential categories in this update.
Demographics and Organizations
Gender data identifies 30 female providers, 13 male providers and no nonbinary providers, corresponding to 70%, 30% and 0%. The activity is concentrated in Washington and Washington, DC. No organization is flagged as notable in the registry summary, but Community of Hope appears under three separate organization records across mental health counselor and counselor taxonomies. Those repeated entries may reflect distinct NPIs or service classifications rather than three separate employers or equivalent clinical capacity.
D.C.’s limited BCBA count alongside its larger RBT count suggests that supervisory capacity, rather than technician recruitment alone, may shape future ABA access.
