Idaho recorded 75 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 1% of the national weekly total. The update includes 28 new entries this week and 32 added this year, with 55 individuals and 20 organizations. Idaho’s small national share points to a limited contribution to weekly behavioral health registry activity, although the pace of new entries suggests ongoing provider and entity formation. NPI records do not confirm active caseloads, staffing levels or appointment availability.
ABA Workforce Mix
The registry reports 2 BCBA credentials and 7 RBT credentials, including 1 dual BCBA-RBT credential. These categories overlap: the dual credential is represented within the BCBA and RBT counts and should not be treated as a separate, mutually exclusive workforce category. The record therefore shows more technician-level than supervisory ABA capacity. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs, the limited BCBA presence could constrain how quickly Idaho clinics expand technician-delivered services. The broader credential mix is dominated by LPC, LCSW and LCPC entries, reflecting a behavioral health registry that extends well beyond ABA.
Demographics and Organizations
Gender data identifies 46 female providers, 7 male providers and 2 nonbinary providers, corresponding to 84%, 13% and 4%. The summary does not assign a gender to every provider record. Boise, Meridian, Idaho Falls, Coeur d’Alene and Pocatello are the listed leading cities, indicating activity across Idaho’s major population centers. No notable organizations are identified in the summary, although Caribou Medical Center appears twice in the provider records under closely related names and different locations. The update also reports 26 providers with multiple taxonomies; those classifications can overlap and do not represent 26 additional providers.
Idaho’s update suggests a geographically distributed behavioral health workforce but thin documented ABA supervisory depth, making BCBA recruitment important to expanding access.
