Georgia recorded 198 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 2% of the national weekly total. The registry added 108 new providers this week, bringing the year-to-date count to 117 providers. Individuals account for 165 entries and organizations for 33. Georgia’s share signals a meaningful, active behavioral health market, although NPI activity does not confirm that a provider is accepting patients, carrying an active caseload or operating at full capacity.

ABA Workforce Mix

The credential data lists 23 BCBAs and 59 RBTs, with 2 dual credentials identifying people listed as both BCBA and RBT. These categories overlap and are not mutually exclusive shares of the provider total: credential fields and taxonomy fields may classify the same provider differently. The larger RBT pool points to substantial direct-service capacity, while the smaller BCBA group indicates a narrower supervisory layer. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs, establish treatment plans and monitor clinical quality, the gap may limit how quickly Georgia clinics can expand services even as technician recruitment grows. The dual-credential count is limited, suggesting that combined technician-to-supervisor credentialing is not a major feature of this update.

Demographics and Organizations

Gender records identify 133 female providers, 23 male providers and 9 nonbinary providers, or 81%, 14% and 5%, respectively. The listed cities include Atlanta, Savannah, Alpharetta, Augusta and Decatur, showing activity across major metropolitan areas as well as regional markets. The registry does not identify notable organizations appearing multiple times in this update. The organization entries span behavioral health agencies, counseling practices and ABA providers, so the count does not represent a single provider model or equivalent service capacity.

Georgia’s expanding RBT presence suggests potential growth in ABA access, but BCBA availability remains central to converting that workforce into supervised, sustainable care.
