Indiana accounted for 200 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, or 2% of the national weekly total. With 80 new providers added this week, the state’s activity signals continued expansion across behavioral health services rather than a narrowly concentrated ABA increase. Indianapolis, Noblesville, Anderson, Carmel and Fort Wayne were among the leading cities, pointing to activity across several established population centers.
ABA Workforce Mix
The registry lists 7 BCBAs and 67 RBTs, with 2 dual credentials reported for BCBA and RBT. These categories overlap: the dual-credentialed individuals are included in the broader credential counts, so they should not be added as a separate workforce pool. The resulting RBT-heavy mix indicates substantial direct-service capacity relative to the number of identified BCBA supervisors. Because BCBAs develop treatment plans and supervise RBTs, the limited BCBA count may constrain caseload growth even as technician enrollment expands. The registry also records 39 multi-taxonomy providers, another reason credential categories should be read as overlapping rather than mutually exclusive.
Demographics and Organizations
Of the 185 individuals in the update, 151 were female, 22 male and 12 nonbinary, corresponding to reported shares of 82%, 12% and 6%. The data includes 15 organizations. Centerstone of Indiana, Inc. appeared 2 times, the only organization identified as recurring in the notable-organizations field, suggesting an established behavioral health presence rather than widespread concentration in a single provider network.
Indiana’s growing technician pipeline, paired with a smaller BCBA supervisory base, suggests access may improve only if the state continues developing and retaining qualified ABA supervisors.
