Hawaii has 37 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, with a reported 0% share of the national weekly total. That figure signals a very small share of recorded national activity, though the JSON does not provide the national count or explain how the share was calculated. The update lists 23 providers added this week and 25 this year; these are registry records, not confirmation of hiring, staffing levels or appointment availability.
ABA Workforce Mix
The credential summary lists 2 BCBAs and 21 RBTs, plus 1 provider with both credentials. These categories overlap: the dual-credential provider may be included in the BCBA and RBT totals, so the counts should not be added as separate groups. The larger RBT count points to a workforce weighted toward direct-service technicians, while the smaller BCBA count highlights the importance of supervisory capacity. BCBAs supervise RBTs, so a limited pool of listed supervisors may constrain how readily technician capacity can translate into services. Five providers have multiple taxonomies, another reason classifications should not be treated as mutually exclusive. The registry also includes other behavioral health credentials, including counseling and social work.
Demographics and Locations
Women account for 25 providers (83%), men for 5 (17%), and nonbinary providers for 0. These figures cover the listed provider population, not necessarily ABA workers alone. The state’s 30 individuals and 7 organizations include no notable organizations appearing multiple times in the data. Honolulu, Waipahu and Mililani are among the listed leading cities; the update does not identify any employer as a repeated presence.
Hawaii’s registry activity suggests an RBT-heavy listed workforce, making BCBA supervision an important factor in expanding reliable ABA access across the state.
